de l'aprés-midi, du soir
4:05 pm is "quatre heures cinq du matin" in French.
In French, you say "huit heures du soir" for 8 o'clock PM. Alternatively, you can also say "20 heures" if using the 24-hour format.
In French, you would say "cinq heures cinquante du soir" to express 5:50 PM.
We say '15 heures' or 'Trois heures de l'après midi'. But '15 heures' is better.
2:05 pm is "deux heures cinq de l'après-midi" or "quatorze heures cinq" in French.
The number 12 is douze in French. That's where English got the word dozen.
Il était sept heures du matin.
There is no official term that I know of that corresponds directly to AM and PM. I have been taught to specify time, you associate the time of day such as du matin, de l'après-midi and du soir. I certainly hope this helps.
3:55 pm is "trois heures cinquante cinq [de l'après-midi]" /or/ "quatre heures moins cinq" /or/ "quinze heures cinquante cinq".
In French, you say 8:20 PM as "vingt heures vingt." In casual conversation, you might also hear "huit heures vingt du soir." The 24-hour clock is commonly used in French-speaking countries for formal contexts.
7 pm
In French, 10:41 PM is said as "dix heures quarante et une du soir." The French use the 24-hour clock system, so "du soir" specifies that it is in the evening. The time is expressed in a 12-hour format with "du soir" or "de l'après-midi" added to differentiate between AM and PM.
