#2 Game of Thrones

I have no real problem with this show because I'm enjoying it a lot, but something troubles me:

 

The characters often refer to "years" to describe people's ages and such. It is my judgement that their definition of a year matches our own in terms of its length. However, the problem is, we are led to believe that this story is taking place on another world... A world where a winter or a summer can last many years. The concept of this is fine. Obviously their planet has a much longer year than our own. The planet must also be on an uneven orbit because the seasons vary in length. My issue is, though, where does their original description of "year" actually come from, that doesn't bear any resemblance to the length of their actual year?

 

Perhaps someone who is familiar with the books will tell me there is a simple explanation for this.
