Hello. I am just wondering whether it's "year-round" or "year-around". I think the former is the correct usage but not sure.

Context: the daycare center is open year-round.

Thanks.

Year-round looks normal to me. I don't think that I have ever seen year-around used in any text that I can recall.

You often see "All year round", meaning the same.

Thanks to both for the replies.

Yeah, I have always have trouble with something that is followed by "round". I couldn't tell it apart from "around". For example, merry-go-round. I had always pronounced it as "merry-go-around", and it was embarrassing.
