英文的時間寫法

Question

想請問英文的時間寫法有哪幾種?
例如: 1:15--->1. It\'s one-fifteen.
2. It\'s fifteen after one.
3. It\'s a quarter after one.
這三種寫法都可以用 但有時又會看到用past, to, half
到底要如何分別什麼時候要用哪一種寫法

另外還有看到有說像1點5分這種的
不能用It\'s one-five. 那要怎麼寫呢?

早上和下午是直接在數字後加am, pm就好了嗎?
如: It\'s eight-thirty pm. 可以寫成It\'s twenty-thirty. 這種方式嗎?

Answer 1

整點 o'clockEx. 1:00It is one (o'clock.)01-09分Ex. 1:01It is one-oh-oneIt is one past/after one1-30分=>past/afterEX.1:14It is one-fourteen.It is fourteen past/after one.31-59=>toEX. 1:40It is one-fortyIt is twenty to two.15分=>quarterEX. 1:15It is one-fifteen.It is a quarter after/past one.Ex.1:45It is one forty-five.It is a quarter to two.30分=>halfEx. 1:30It is one thirty.It is half past/after one.英語時間二十四小時制...念數字Ex. 20:15It is twenty fifteenThe 24-hour clock in spoken EnglishThe time 18:30 is usually pronounced "eighteen thirty". In U.S. military usage, this is often followed by the word "hours", to clarify that the speaker is referring to a time of day. 以12小時分時.....早上為AM  下午為PM...加在時間後面... It is one-ten PM. It is two thirty-one AM. It is one AM.F.Y.I.

字數超過...
以上寫法意義都一樣..
只是在正式書信裡...用全數字會比較好
It is one-fifteen.

24小時制...
20:15
It is twenty-fifteen hours.
20:00
It is twenty-hundred hours.
回答中少打一個hours

也可以說It is twenty o'clock.

quarter要加a...
half我念到現在是都沒加a的...
half的l沒發音...

Answer 2

那再請問在quarter, half之前
到底要不要加"a"
再問個比較不相關的 是關係音標的
在half這個字 l是不是不發音呢?
謝謝!
