Se scrie în engleză așa:
How to tell time in English?
- 5 : 25 = It's twenty-five minutes past five;
- 2 : 20 = It's twenty minutes past two;
- 3 : 00 = It's three o'clock/ three o'clock sharp;
- 5 : 30 = It's half past five;
- 7 : 15 = It's quarter past seven;
- 1 : 10 = It's ten minutes past one;
- 1 : 45 = It's quarter to one;
- 3 : 40 = It's twenty minutes to three;
- 8 : 50 = It's ten minutes to eight;
- 9 : 43 = It's seventeen minutes to nine;
- 7 : 35 = It's twenty-five minutes to seven.
Explicație:
(1) Când vorbim despre ore fixe, vom folosi întotdeauna expresia o'clock:
Eg. It's one o'clock (= 1 : 00).
(2) Când vorbim despre prima jumătate de oră, vom folosi întotdeauna past (trecut de):
Eg. It's 10 minutes past 3 (= 3 : 10).
(3) Când vorbim despre a doua jumătate de oră, vom folosi întotdeauna to (înainte de):
Eg. It's 10 minutes to 3 (= 2 : 50).
Sper că te-am ajutat! :)
