It is considered a "year" the period that the Earth takes to revolve around the Sun. In the Gregorian calendar, which is the one we have adopted, this period has 365 days in an ordinary year, or 366 days in a leap year. The word "year" is used to mark other periods such as academic year, fiscal year, etc.

In English, the abbreviation for year is "y" or "yr" and the ISO standard ISO 80000-3, Annex C, displays the symbol "a" (for Latin annus) to represent a common or leap year.
