Telling the time in german
Wie spät ist es? - What time is it?
Es ist ... Uhr - It is ... o'clock
Example: Es ist drei Uhr - It is three o'clock
Es ist ... Uhr - It is ... o'clock
Example: Es ist drei Uhr - It is three o'clock
Es ist viertel nach ... - It is quarter past ...
Example: Es ist viertel nach drei - It is quarter past three
Es ist viertel vor ... - It is quarter to ...
Example: Es ist viertel vor drei - It is quarter to three
Es ist halb ... - It is half an hour before ...
Note: In german you don't say "it's half past ...", you say "it's half an hour before ..."
Example: Es ist halb drei - It is half an hour before three
Using the 24-hour clock in German makes it much easier as for example, 22:35 would be zweiundzwanzig Uhr funfunddreißig
