In common speech it is a useless distinction since enough people use these words interchangeably, ok? @Bob_Luken ?
lay is transitive and requires an object to act upon, and lie is intransitive, describing something moving on its own or already in position. Beyond the present tense, the pair can become more confusing because lay is the past tense of lie, and laid is the past tense of lay.

The word millennium has two N's in the middle, because it comes from the Latin word for "year", annus.
If you spell it with one N, this changes annus to *a**s*, which makes it mean not "a thousand years" but rather "a thousand a******s".
