Yes, the length of a year is changing gradually over time due to the Earth's rotation slowing down. This phenomenon is primarily influenced by factors like tidal friction caused by the Moon and Sun, as well as the Earth's inner core dynamics. However, the change in the length of a year is very gradual and not easily noticeable in our daily lives.
