-To begin, choose a current age. For this example we will choose 23 years old, a popular age for many characters on the site. Next, find the current year on the Neshaten calendar (if this page is kept updated, the current year will be displayed in the previous category or can be calculated from the statement mentioned). At the time of writing, the current year is EE006 or YE 44.+To begin, choose a current age. For this example we will choose 23 years old, a popular age for many characters on the site. Next, find the current year on the Neshaten calendar (if this page is kept updated, the current year will be displayed in the previous category or can be calculated from the statement mentioned). At the time of writing, the current year is EE006v or YE 45.
  
 To make our Shukaren 23 years old, we will simply subtract that number from the Neshaten year: ''EE004v - 4 = ER775v - 19 = ER756v'' To make our Shukaren 23 years old, we will simply subtract that number from the Neshaten year: ''EE004v - 4 = ER775v - 19 = ER756v''

 Because Shukaren age half as quickly as most species and their years are twice as long, finding their year of birth is an identical process as if using the YE timeline with a Minkan. If a Daur was 21 years old by Neshaten standards, they would actually have been alive for 42 standard years. When counting backwards using the Neshaten calendar, you would start at EE004v and go back 41 years, including each year and its second half denoted with the v: 004v, 004, 003v, 003 etc. until you have gone back 41 years. Because Shukaren age half as quickly as most species and their years are twice as long, finding their year of birth is an identical process as if using the YE timeline with a Minkan.
