the winter Olympics occurs every 4 years, 2 years after each summer Olympics.
The Olympics are every 4 years. There were Winter Olympics in 1968 and 1972, but, not in 1970. The idea of have the Summer Olympics and the Winter Olympics in different even number years is something that was started just a few years ago. The two events used to be held in the same year. There were Summer Olympics in 1968 and 1972 (where the Israeli athletes were murdered), but, no Summer, or Winter, Olympics were held in 1970.
there are 4 years in between the 'summer' Olympics, and then, 2 years later, the winter Olympics. e.g. the Olympics in 2008, the winter Olympics in 2010 and then the Olympics in 2012 and so-on.
The Winter and Summer Olympics were held on the same year until 1992 when the Summer Olympics were held in Barcelona and the Winter Olympics were held in Albertville, France. The IOC voted to change the tradition and the next Winter Olympics were held in 1994 in Lillehammer, Norway.

There are no Summer Olympic games. The Olympics take place every 4 years and the last one was 2008 in Beijing. The next Summer games will be 2012 in London. The Winter and Summer Olympics switch off every 2 years so that be why you are confused. There were 2010 Winter Olympics but there will not be 2010 Summer Olympics.
Back in the old days the Winter & Summer Olympics were both in the same year, and 4 years apart. Now-a-days, they switch every 2 years from Summer, to Winter! So, for example in 2008 we had the Summer Olympics in Beijing, and 2 years later we had the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver! :) Next we will be having the Summer Olympics of 2012 in London! I am not certain when the Olympics will be coming to your country
The year 2009 will not have Summer Olympics or Winter Olympics. The Olympics only occur once every 2 years, and alternates Summer, Winter, Summer, Winter...
The winter Olympics are every four years as well as the summer Olympics. But every two years there will be either a winter Olympics or summer Olympics.
The summer olympics happens every four years but in between those four years, the winter olympics would occur on the second year. For example: summer olympics-2000 winter olympics-2002 summer olympics-2004 winter olympics-2006 summer olympics-2008 winter olympics-2010 summer olympics-2012 winter olympics -2014 etc......
The Summer Olympic take place every 4 years. Same doe for the Winter Olympic . The Winter and Summer switch every 2 years.
the winter Olympics occurs every 4 years, 2 years after each summer Olympics.
because the summer Olympics come every 4 years and so do the winter Olympics. they alternate every 2 years. so this year is winter and in 2 years in summer
the winter Olympics occurs every 4 years, 2 years after each summer Olympics.
An Olympic Games will be held every two years. The Summer Olympics will be held in 2008, then the Winter Olympics in 2010, then the Summer Olympics in 2012, then the Winter Olympics in 2014, and so on.
The Summer Olympics occur every 4 years, and the same goes for Winter Olympics; except Winter Olympics take place always 2 years after the Summer Olympics. For example, Summer Olympics went to Beijing in 2008, Winter Olympics went to Vancouver in 2010, and Summer Olympics will come back on in 2012 in London.
Summer Olympics every 4 years and Winter Olympics every 4 years. Next Winter Olympics will be 2010 and Summer Olympicsin 2012.
