Non-breaking space
Test using a non-breaking space between the number and the units (year, month, day, etc). A breaking space is used between the units and "ago" (similar to the output of Template:Start date and years ago).
These examples are placed inside a narrow <div> to force a line break. They are based on the current date and time, which is: 2022-07-07 12:12:02 (UTC). If that is not correct, click to update the page.
