In the languages of my ancestors, for example, if someone was 14 years old, they would be “14 år gammal” in Swedish (14 years old) and “14 Jahre alt” in German (14 years old), but in Italian, they would say “ho 14 anni” (I have 14 years).

Мне 15 лет
Russians use the dative case to indicate age along with the word summers, instead of the words “years” (I suspect you could hypothetically form a plural from the word for year, год, but I don’t think I’ve ever encountered it — лет, literally summers, is presented to language learners as the correct plural for year) and the present tense of the verb “to be” is elided most contexts, so most literally you would render it in English “to me fifteen summers”.
