A year is a period of time that represent a completion of a time cycle.
This time cycle can be when the Earth complete an orbit around the Sun or when the Moon complete 12 orbits around the Earth, or when the Earth complete 365 rotation around itself. But not only.
These time cycles are different from one to the other:
The Earth complete an orbit around the Sun in about 365.25 days.
The Moon complete one orbit around the Earth in about 29.53 days.
The Earth rotates around itself in about 24 hours but measurements suggest it is slowing down in about 2.3 milliseconds each 100 years.
