What is the meaning of BC and AD? And what does BCE and CE mean? AD does not mean âAfter Death.â It is an abbreviation for âAnno Domini,â which is a Latin phrase meaning âin the year of our Lord,â referring to the year of Christâs birth. BC means before Christ. So at the time of this writing, 2011 AD is intended to signify that it has been 2,011 years since Christ was born.
AD or A.D. stands for Anno Domini and is a label for numbering years after Christ was born. BC or B.C. means Before Christ. The year Christ was born is considered AD 1 and the year before that is labeled 1 BC.Historians use a nomenclature with less religious connotation: namely CE/BCE where CE means Common Era and BCE stands for Before Common Era. The Hebrew calendar considers the year 3760 BC as year 1. 2  In the Islamic calendar, the year 622 AD is year 1 because Prophet Mohammed embarked on a holy journey in that year. 3  Buddha died over 400 years before Christ was born.
