[century] CE

around [year] CE

用法筆記

CE always follows the year number (e.g. 2024 CE), never comes before it. BCE is the matching term for dates before year 1. CE and BCE together form the Common Era dating system, used as a religiously neutral alternative to AD and BC.

in 500 CE

500 CE BC
500 BCE
CE and BC belong to different systems; use BCE for dates before year 1, not a mix of both labels.
