The abbreviation for after midday is PM. This is an abbreviation of the Latin phrase post meridiem meaning 'after noon'.
AM is an abbreviation of the Latin ante meridiem meaning 'before noon'.
I take Latin and these answers are correct.
Midday is twelve of clock noon. What comes after midday is after-midday, or the afternoon. The abbreviation p.m. means post meridiem, or post midday.
AM - ante meridiem (Before midday) PM - post meridiem (After midday)
The abbreviation "am" or "AM" or ``A.M.`` used in describing the time of day stands for ``ante meridiem`` which means ``before midday``. P.M., of course, stands for post meridiem - after midday.
what do am and pm mean? well am means it is morning pm means its afternoon and night AM Means : ANTI MERIDIAN PM Means : POST MERIDIAN
The P stands for Post and the M stand for Meridian.From the Latin, Post means after, and Meridian means midday (noon).So the abbreviation PM as it pertains to time stand for after-midday or afternoon.
What does “a.m.” mean?The term we associate with the morning, a.m., is an abbreviation of the Latin phrase ante merīdiem meaning “before midday.”What does “p.m.” mean?P.m. is an abbreviation of post merīdiem, meaning—you guessed it—“after midday.”These two terms help keep ambiguity at bay in the 12-hour time system.
a.m is an abbreviation and means before noon ie before 1200 hours. It comes from the Latin words ante meridiem (translated into English it means before midday) p.m is an abbreviation and means after noon ie after 1200 hours. It comes from the Latin words post meridiem (translated into English it means after midday)
Midday is 12 noon or 12 midday. It is not 12 p.m. as p.m. means 'after midday'; nor is it 12 a.m. as a.m. means 'before midday. Logically, midday cannot be before or after midday. Similarly, midnight is 12 midnight.
