PST and EST are time zones in North America. PST is Pacific Standard Time and EST is Eastern Standard Time. There is a difference of 3 hours between these time zones.

The Timezone Offsets of PST and EST are -8 and -5 respectively. This means that PST is eight hours behind Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), while EST is only five hours behind.

Eastern Standard Time (EST) is the time zone used in North America and is equivalent to UTC-5 (Coordinated Universal Time) meaning 5 hours earlier than UTC. Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) is used in areas that observe daylight saving time during the time it is observed and is equivalent to UTC-4.

This results in a 1 hour time difference.

EDT is Eastern Daylight Time

EST is Eastern Standard Time.

The difference between EDT and EST is that EDT is used in the summer in many states, provinces and territories in the US and Canada, including: Quebec, Nunavut, Ontario, Conneticut, Florida, Michigan, New Jersey and many more.

EST is used in winter in these places.

It means the same thing as "is" and "are" in this example. They are the same word but the word form changes depending on who the word refers to.

Él está aquí = He is here.

Tú estás aquí = You (familiar) are here.

Están would be the same word for a group

What is the time difference between Ohio and Ghana Africa?

Depends on the time of year. In the winter Ohio is on Eastern Standard Time {EST} and Ghana is on West Africa time, so the difference is 5 hours. Example: 8 AM in Ohio = 1 PM in Ghana. In the spring Ohio switches to Eastern Daylight Time {EDT} but Ghana does not observe Daylight Saving Time. The time difference then would be only 4 hours. In the autum Ohio switches back from EDT to EST and again there is that five hour time difference.
