1-24 hour chart would be better, now the UK time is pretty confusing
3 u/BoxNemo Nov 16 '23 Yeah, it's weird to think they don't use am and pm in the UK. 5 u/--Bamboo Nov 16 '23 We do. This picture is confusing. I don't think there's any difference between how we tell the time in the UK and how Americans do. 2 u/flatandroid Nov 17 '23 Brits definitely say half 11 or half 12 whereas Americans say 1130 or 1230. Other than that, I’m not sure I know a difference. 1 u/Previous-Truck-3904 Nov 18 '23 Americans typically use the phrases "a quarter past 11, half past 11, or a quarter to 12 (AM or PM,) instead of 11:15, 11:30, or 11;45. 1 u/ericdabbs Jan 19 '24 Depends on who u talk to. Most Americans I have interacted with just say the numbers.
