AM stands for Anti Meridian and PM stands for Post Meridian. They are Spanish words.
Is the above response typical of the comments found on these blogs? I think it is.
This outrageous reply sucks. And totally explains the reason I never answer or respond. But this display of ignorance is impossible.
The guessed at answer of AM is spelled incorrectly no senor?
And I am quite certain the terms are in the Latin vernacular.
So, please sir be gone & bother us no more with incorrect info. Shame on you.
Sincerely, Danny from Mesa (Spanish word meaning table)
Using the 24 hour clock system, then 1 pm is 13.00, and 2 pm is 14.00.
PM in time stands for "Post Meridiem" and refers to "after noon" in 12 hour clock. The "meridiem" is when the sun reaches its zenith (theortically at noon) and post means after.
Post Morning
Post Meridian
Prime Meridian
On a 24 hour clock, it's pm. On a twelve hour clock, it could be either.
2 PM on the 24 hour clock is 14:00.
1500 is 3:00 PM
9:00 pm on a 12-hour clock is equivalent to 21:00 on a 24-hour clock.
16.30PM
5+12 is 17:00 in 24 hour clock
A twelve hour clock has 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12 and is the standard form time clock. A 24 hour clock has times starting at 1-12, but after it will start with 13 as 1 p.m. all the way to 24 or 00 as 12 midnight.
2 pm
16:00 is 4pm on a 24 hour clock.
2000 hrs
1238 hrs corresponds to 12:38 PM in a 12-hour clock format or 1:38 PM in a 24-hour clock format.
The 19th hour is equivalent to 7:00 PM in the 24-hour clock format.
