The Winter Solstice, which can be on the 21st of December or on the 22nd of December, is the day on which there is the least daylight hours, often called the shortest day. On the last Sunday in March, Daylight Savings Time begins in Spain. The clocks go forward by one hour. That means that there are only 23 hours in that day, so that can also be said to be the shortest day.
No. It has equal amounts of daylight and darkness. A winter solstice has the least amount of daylight and can be regarded as the shortest day of the year. If your clocks go forward once a year, then that particular day has 23 hours, so that could also be said to be the shortest day of the year.
An equinox is not the shortest day. It has the same amount of daylight and darkness. The solstices have the longest and shortest days. The winter solstice is the shortest day of the year in terms of the amount of daylight.
