8 45 in English. Time in English

Time is the basis of life, and every new day is an opportunity to spend time profitably. Every day we come across the concept of time: when we make an appointment with a friend, make an appointment with a doctor, reserve a table in a restaurant, or simply tell the exact hour to a passerby on the street.

English language learners need to know how to indicate the exact time of day and today we will figure out how to do this so as not to mislead anyone.

From this article you will learn how to correctly say the time of day in English, how to write this time, how to say the exact hour, how to say 30 minutes in English and other useful information on the topic of time.

Time of day in English

Time(time) consists of such basic concepts as seconds(seconds), minutes(minutes), hours(hours) and longer ones, such as days(days), weeks(weeks) years(of the year), centuries(centuries) and others.

Of course, the most common question on this topic is “How to say what time it is in English.”

First of all, you need to know the numbers on the dial and a peculiar scheme by which you can tell about any time.

So, the main divisions of the dial in English:

1 (One) = 5 (five) minutes
2 (Two) = 10 (ten) minutes
3 (Three) = 15 (fifteen) minutes
4 (Four) = 20 (twenty) minutes
5 (Five) = 25 (twenty five) minutes
6 (Six) = 30 (fitry) minutes
7 (Seven) = 35 (thirty five) minutes
8 (Eight) = 40 (forty) minutes
9 (Nine) = 45 (forty five) minutes
10 (Ten) = 50 (fifty) minutes
11 (Eleven) = 55 (fifty five) minutes
12 (Twelve) = 60 (sixty) minutes

> Even time

If the clock is at even time (one o'clock, three o'clock, five o'clock, etc.), then the most common way to tell this is by simply adding o'clock to the number:

It’s five o’clock - It’s five o’clock now
It’s ten o"clock - It’s ten o’clock now

There are more sophisticated options for saying the exact time, but they are much less common in speech:

It’s five o’clock sharp - It’s exactly five o’clock now
It’s ten o’clock on the dot - It’s ten o’clock minute by minute

> Thirty minutes

If the clock shows exactly 30 minutes, then we use the expression half past(half after...).

Moreover, if in Russian we usually say that the time is “half of such and such an hour,” then the British will call the same time as “thirty minutes after such and such an hour.”

It’s half past seven - Half after seven = Half past eight = Seven thirty

> Fifteen minutes and any number of minutes

When the time on the clock is not exact, but with minutes, then you need to remember a simple basic rule:

If the clock shows less than 30 minutes, then we say past(after such and such an hour), if more than 30 minutes, then we say to(until such and such an hour). At the same time, the word itself minutes(minutes) is not named, but is implied.

And again, the rule is observed, which we learned a little higher: what is ten minutes after two for a Russian-speaking person, is ten minutes after two for an Englishman.

This rule is difficult to get used to, but with a little practice, you can always keep this in mind in case you need to say the exact time in a conversation.

For example:

It's five past four- Five minutes after four = Five minutes after five
It's five to four- Five minutes to four = Five minutes to four

It's twenty past nine- Twenty minutes after nine = Twenty minutes past ten
It's twenty to nine- Twenty minutes to nine = Twenty minutes to nine

When we talk about fifteen minutes in Russian, we usually use the word “quarter”. The English use the word " quarter».

Only if the minute hand shows 15 minutes will it be quarter past(a quarter after) and the previous hour will be called, and if the minute hand is at the 45 minute mark, it will be quarter to(quarter to) and the next hour will be called.

It's quarter past five- Quarter after five = Quarter past six = Fifteen minutes past six = Six fifteen

It's quarter to five- Quarter to five = Quarter to five = Fifteen to five = Four forty-five

> Approximate time

If you do not know the exact time and want to say only approximately, use the prepositions about (around) or almost (almost).

It's about five- It's about five now
It's almost five- It's almost five now

A.M. and P.M.

These abbreviations are often used in English-speaking countries to indicate the time of day. They have 24 hours, which can be divided into the first 12 (from midnight to noon) - this will be a.m. (ante meridiem) and on the other 12 (from noon to midnight) - it will be p.m. (postmeridiem).

If in Russian we say, for example, 5 o’clock in the morning, then in America they will say 5 a.m., and if it is 5 o’clock in the evening, then it will already be 5 p.m.

Many people get confused with the 12-hour format and the symbols when it comes to indicating noon or midnight. Remember:

12 p.m. = Noon (12 noon)
12 a.m. = Midnight (12 am)

Important: abbreviations a.m. and p.m. never used with o'clock. That is, it may be five o’clock or 5 p.m., but not 5 o’clock p.m.

Together with o'clock we can only use the time of day indication: in the morning(morning) in the afternoon(days) or in the evening(evenings).

It's seven a.m. = It’s seven o’clock in the morning = Seven in the morning

How to ask what time it is in English?

The easiest way to find out the time of your interlocutor is to ask him a question What time is it? or What is the time?(What time is it now?).

This question will be understood by everyone, young and old.

One of the most common mistakes in this matter for Russian speakers is translation. If in Russian we usually ask: “Could you tell me what time it is?” then, translating this phrase into English verbatim, a person can ask “Can you tell the time?” What essentially means, we ask a person if he knows how to name and determine the time on a clock. This, of course, is not such a serious mistake, and a foreigner will understand what you want from him, but it is better to remember the most universal question:

What time is it?

Or if you want to be very polite, you could say:

Could you please tell me what time it is?

Prepositions of time

Various prepositions will help express a more precise time or period of time in English language.

> Prepositions to denote a specific moment in time

If we talk about days, we use the preposition on:

We will see her on Sunday - We'll see her V Sunday
My vacation begins on Friday - My vacation will begin V Friday

If we are talking about a specific time in the day, noon, midnight or night in general, we use the preposition at:

His train arrives at midnight - His train is arriving V midnight
We like to walk at night - We like to walk at night
The concert finished at 11 p.m. - The concert is over V 11 p.m

If we talk about another time of day (day or morning), as well as months, years and seasons, we use the preposition in:

Cats usually sleep in the afternoon - Cats usually sleep during the day
The nights are long in December - IN December nights are long
The birds leave in late autumn - Birds fly away in late autumn
This town was founded in 1834 - This city was founded V 1834

> Prepositions to indicate a period of time

If we talk about a certain period of time in English, we use different prepositions depending on the situation: since, for, by, from-to, from-until, during, (with)in. For example:

They are going to Prague for a week - They are going to Prague on a week
Mary has been sick since yesterday - Mary is sick with yesterday
It often rains in St. Petersburg from March to June - C Martha By June in St. Petersburg it often rains
She will be on a business trip since August until the end of September - She will be on a business trip With August By end of September

Not a single day goes by without us looking at the clock, telling or asking the time. From this article you will learn how to say time in English, how AM and PM stand for it, and what “military time” is.

Basic English words on the topic “Time”

What are AM and PM?

In English, the day is clearly divided into two periods: AM and PM.

• AM – 00:00 - 12:00 or from midnight (midnight) to noon (midday);
• PM – 12:00 - 00:00 or from noon to midnight.

These abbreviations are not English, but Latin, they stand for ante meridiem(before noon) and post meridiem(afternoon). When naming time, these two abbreviations are often added to make it clear what time of day we are talking about.

A simple way to tell time in English

In Russian, we can call time simply by two numbers without any “twenty to twenty”, “half”, “quarter to” and so on. The same method exists in English.

• 03:15 – Three fifteen (three fifteen).
• 04:35 – Four thirty-five (four thirty-five).

If the exact hour without minutes is specified, then this hour is called + “o’clock”.

• 11:00 – Eleven o’clock (eleven o’clock).
• 10:00 – Ten o’clock (ten o’clock).

In speech, sentences indicating tense are constructed with the formal subject it. According to the rules of grammar, a sentence must have a subject - it formally fulfills this role.

• It is five twenty-five AM. - It's five twenty-five in the morning.
• It's ten thirty PM. - It's ten thirty in the evening.

In our country you can often hear not “six in the evening”, but “eighteen hours”; in America, the 24-hour time format is practically not used in everyday life; it is used mainly by police officers, military personnel, technicians and people of other professions in which accuracy is important. This designation of time is called military time- "war time". By the way, how would you say 17:00 in English? Not seventeen o’clock or seventeen zero zero at all. It will be right seventeen hundred– literally, “seventeen hundred.”

Telling the time in English by the clock

Another, more common, way of saying time is by using expressions like “half past four” instead of “four thirty”, “a quarter to two” instead of “one forty five”, etc.

How this is done is shown in detail in the picture:

We call the exact time without tricks: It's... o'clock:

• It's ten o'clock. - It's ten o'clock now.
• It's four o'clock. - It's four o'clock now.

We call time with 30 minutes using half past(lit.: half after):

• It's half past four. - It's half past four now.
• It's half past one. - It's half past two now.

We call time with 15 minutes using a quarter past(a quarter after) or “a quarter to” (without a quarter):

• It’s a quarter past seven. - It's quarter past seven.
• It's a quarter to nine. - It's a quarter to nine now.

All other time options are indicated using to(without) or past(after).

• It's five past seven. – It’s five minutes past seven (lit.: five after seven).
• It's twenty-five to eleven. – It’s now twenty-five minutes to eleven (lit.: twenty-five to eleven).

Other useful words and expressions on the topic "Time"

One of the difficulties associated with the topic of time in English is the correct use of prepositions in different expressions. Mentions of time in conversations are far from limited to phrases like “It’s half past five.” For beginners, confusion often arises in the expressions “in an hour”, “at nine o’clock”, etc.

You can familiarize yourself with prepositions of time in this collection; below I also provide some template expressions that may be useful to you.

Tenses in English are the main component of any course of study. I know from my own experience how difficult they can be for some people. But you can’t go anywhere without them.

There is a huge amount of literature on this topic, but this routine only confuses.

If you want to start learning English in order to know English or simply, for example, be able to compose questions or translate texts, then this article will be your assistant.

With the help of this article you will understand the difference in times, it will help you stop being confused about times, but the rules, forms of education - all this is easily accessible for independent study. After reading, you can also go deeper into studying this topic based on the principle.

So let's get started.

There are 4 tenses in English:
Simple.
Long lasting.
Completed.
Durable-complete.

Each time is divided into:
The present
Past
Future
It’s simple, tenses are divided according to the same system in the Russian language. Now I will briefly describe each of the times and its distinctive properties and how to easily and quickly distinguish it from others.

1) Simple

This is the easiest time. The easiest.

Meaning- statement of fact. Denotes a regular, usual, natural action. Facts, truths. This time does NOT have a specific point in time.

In general, if you just say it, it shows a normal action, someone did something, someone knows something, etc. or just a fact. The same action that, for example, a person does every morning, or every day, or what a person did yesterday.
If the sentence contains the words - everyday, usually, never, at first, then, after, in the morning, in the evening, tomorrow, next week, next month, often, soon - then most likely this is a simple tense. You can distinguish by the presence in a sentence of auxiliary verbs in negative and interrogative sentences: do, does, did, didn"t, don"t, will, shall, will not, shall not. Remember - regularity, fact, ordinary action.

The present- the person is doing this now, or he is doing this every day (talking every day, or reading a book, writing a letter, etc.).
Past- an action that happened or happened in the past. Well, or a fact from the past (wrote a letter yesterday, worked every day, worked from 90 to 95, went shopping in the evening).
Future- an action or series of actions that will happen in the future, predictions, forecasts (I will work tomorrow, I will write a letter, I will study foreign language every day, I will do an essay soon).

2) Long-term

Process is the main meaning of time. Shows that an action is being done, has been done or will be done certain time. I did, but didn't do it. If the sentence contains the words - now, at the moment, at, when, while, at 20 o"clock, tomorrow - then most likely this is exactly what long time. They can be distinguished by the ing ending of the verbs. Auxiliary verbs - was, were, was not, were not, am, will be, shall be. Remember - it shows that time was spent on the action.

The present- an action that a person does right now, he actually does it and wastes his time, and this is exactly what is shown in the sentence (Working now, writing a letter at the moment, going home now).
Past- an action that occurred at some specific moment in the past, or that was done at the moment when another action occurred. (I was writing a letter at 7 pm; he was writing a letter when I entered the room, he had been sleeping for 4 hours).
Future- an action that will take place at a certain moment in the future (I will write a letter at 7 pm, I will dig the earth tomorrow from 7 to 9 am).

3)Completed

The result is the main meaning of time. Shows that the action is completed, is there a result! If a sentence contains the words - twice, lately, recently, several times, yet, already, never, just, ever - then this is most likely a completed tense. You can distinguish them by the auxiliary verbs - had, has, have, shall have, will have.

Remember - there is a result here, the action here has completed or will end, and this is either way.

The present- an action that took place in the past, but has the most direct connection with the present. Example: he has already written a letter. Let me explain: he did this in the past, but the result applies specifically to the present. Example: I just lost my key. Let me explain: what he lost was in the past, but he is talking about it now.
Past- an action that completed before a certain point in time in the past (I wrote a letter by 7 o’clock).
Future- an action that will be completed by some specific moment in the future (I will write a letter by 7 o’clock).

4) Completed - long

Here I recommend independent study. This tense is not used in colloquial speech, and it is better to come to the study of this tense after studying the above written tenses. Don't worry about it, work out the previous tenses!

So, to summarize:

Simple tense is a statement of fact.
A long time is a process.
Completed is the result.
Practice makes perfect. Do simple tasks, guided by this article, and soon you will calmly distinguish one time from another. Improve yourself! Good luck!

Time ( time) can be called the basis of our life. Seconds ( seconds), minutes ( minutes), watch ( hours), days ( days), weeks ( weeks), months ( months), years ( years) are the quantities we use when we talk about time. In the comments we are often asked: “How to say what time is in English?” Therefore, we decided to give examples of how to correctly say time in English, a diagram for all occasions and, of course, a fun test!

How to say time correctly in English

So, you were asked in English: What time is it now? To answer, of course, you need to know. You will also find our convenient diagram useful!

Let's look at examples of how to say time in English.

1. The clock says exactly 3 o'clock, for example, you could say:

It's three o'clock. - Three hours, three o'clock.

It's three o'clock sharp. - Exactly three hours.

It’s three o’clock on the dot. - Three hours, minute to minute.

2. If the time is not exact, but with minutes, then there are two options for how to say it. When there are less than 30 minutes, we say past, and if the minute hand has already crossed 30, then to.

It's five past three. - "Five minutes after three,” that is, five minutes past four.

It's five to three. - "Five minutes before three,” that is, three to five.

It's twenty past eight. - "Twenty after eight,” that is, twenty minutes past eight.

It's twenty to eight. - "Twenty before eight,” that is, twenty minutes to eight.

3. The fun begins when we have to say “15 minutes” or “15 to 15.” In Russian we sometimes say “quarter”, and in English it’s the same - quarter.

It's a quarter past six. – “ Quarter after six,” that is, a quarter past six or fifteen minutes past six.

It's a quarter to six. – “ Quarter to six,” that is, a quarter to six or fifteen to six.

4. Also we have separate word for "half" - half. And usually they only use past when they say “half past five”, for example:

It's half past four. – “ Half after four,” that is, half past five.

5. If we give an approximate time, we use prepositions about(near) / almost(almost).

It's about eight. – Near eight.

It's almost eight. – Almost eight.

What is a.m. and p.m.

You've probably come across abbreviations a.m. And p.m. next to time in English. What are they needed for? There are twenty-four hours in a day. The time in the first half of the day (before noon) in English-speaking countries is usually called a.m. (ante meridiem), and in the second half (afternoon) - p.m. (post meridiem). In Russian we say “13 pm” or “6 am”, but in the West they would rather say 1 p.m. and 6 a.m. And all because they have a 12-hour time format, and not a 24-hour one, like ours. Therefore it is important to know what is a.m. And p.m., because it makes a big difference if a friend wants to come to you at one in the morning (1 a.m.) or hour of the day (1 p.m.) :-) By the way, 12 noon is 12 p.m., and 12 a.m.– this is 12 am (midnight). You can always check yourself using .

And remember, we are talking It's 3 a.m. or It’s 3 o’clock in the morning, but you can't say it's 3 o'clock a.m. That is o'clock we can only use with in the morning(morning) in the afternoon(days) or in the evening(evenings).

It's six a.m.= It's six o"clock in the morning. - Six in the morning.

And in the next video the teacher with engvid.com will tell you how to talk about time correctly in English.

At the end I want to open one little secret. Of course, it is important to know how to correctly tell the time in English using past And to, and quarter And half, but people strive to simplify. Therefore, often instead of a long phrase It's half past seven people will just say It's seven thirty. Yes, the simpler the better. But also classic version You need to know, what if a foreigner tells you the time exactly like that?

In conclusion, we offer you a test and our universal scheme for downloading. It will help you always correctly say what time it is in English.

Telling time in English

When composing phrases and sentences, as well as in colloquial speech that mention the time of day or night in English, the following are used: in, at - as prepositions of time, language constructs: half past - half after, quarter past - quarter after and other English words and phrases. Let's talk about all this in more detail and in order.

What time is it in English.

First, let's look at a few examples:

Example 1.

How do you say 8 hours 15 minutes in English?

• Quarter past eight - [ˈk(w)ɔːtə pɑːst eɪt ] -
• - fifteen minutes past nine;

IN in this example quarter - quarter, past - in a temporary sense indicates a later action: later, for, after, eight - eight, The literal translation looks like this: a quarter after eight, and the semantic translation into Russian: fifteen minutes past eight.

Example 2.

As it will be in English 17 hours 30 minutes.

• Half past five - [ hɑːf pɑːst faɪv ] -
• - half past six;

half - half, past - after, five - five; half after five- half past six.

Example 3.

How to say it in English: 20 hours 25 minutes.

• Twenty-five past eight - [ˈtwɛnti faɪv pɑːst eɪt ] -
• - twenty-five minutes past nine;

Twenty-five - twenty five, past - after, eight - eight, twenty five minutes after eight- twenty-five minutes past nine.

Example 4.

As it will be in English 18 hours 40 minutes.

• Twenty to seven - [ˈtwɛnti tuː ˈsɛv(ə)n ] -
• - twenty minutes to seven.

Rules of use:

Rule 1.

When to use - o"clock.

When you call time without minutes, (eight, five, two hours) the word is used - o "clock - [ əˈklɒk ]. Example:

• It"s five o"clock in the morning - [ɪts faɪv əˈklɒk ɪn ðə: ˈmɔːnɪŋ] -
• - It's five o'clock in the morning.

If you tell time with minutes, (one hour fifteen minutes), word - o "clock not used. Instead, use: past or to.

Rule 2.

In what cases to use: past - [ pɑːst ] and to - [ tuː ].

1. If you're talking about time before 30 minutes inclusive, are used pretext past - after , for example, in Russian we say: twenty five minutes past eight, and in English they say: Twenty-five past eight - [ˈtwɛnti faɪv pɑːst eɪt ]; verbatim - twenty five after eight, But correct translation into Russian: twenty five minutes past eight.

   If you want to say 15 minutes of an hour, then you should use the word quarter - quarter, example: Quarter past eight - [ˈk(w)ɔːtə pɑːst eɪt ]- fifteen minutes past nine.

2. If the time is more than 30 minutes, use the preposition to, which in this case is translated as - to. For example, 18:40, in Russian we will say - twenty minutes to seven, and in English they say - Twenty to seven - [ˈtwɛnti tuː ˈsɛv(ə)n ]; literally - 20 minutes to seven, semantic translation: twenty minutes to seven

Rule 3.

Using the preposition at - [ æt].

The preposition at is used to indicate a specific point in time, for example:

• I get up at six o"clock every morning - [aɪ ˈɡet ʌp æt sɪks əˈklɒk ˈɛvri ˈmɔːnɪŋ] -
• - I get up at six o'clock every morning.

Rule 4.

Use of the preposition in - [ ɪn]

The preposition in in a temporary meaning indicates the moment or period of time, part of the day, time of year and can be translated into Russian as: during, for, through and is used in cases where you need to indicate a specific period of time, for example:

• I have class in 10 minutes - [aɪ hæv klɑːs ɪn ten ˈmɪnɪts] -
• - I have class in 10 minutes.

Additionally

In everyday life, the British usually use the twelve-hour format and add which part of the day the time belongs to. For example:

• It"s seven o"clock in the evening - [ɪts ˈsɛv(ə)n əˈklɒk ɪn ðə: ˈiːv(ə)nɪŋ] - it's seven o'clock in the evening.

You may not indicate the part of the day in your letter, but use abbreviations: am, pm.

1. am - (Latin, ante meridiem) before noon .
2. pm - (Latin, post meridiem) afternoon .
