The 12-hour clock is a timekeeping convention in which the 24 hours of the day are divided into two periods called ante meridiem (a.m., from Latin, literally "before midday") and post meridiem (p.m., "after midday"). Each period consists of 12 hours numbered 12 (acting as a zero), 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11. The a.m. period runs from midnight to noon, while the p.m. period runs from noon to midnight. The most common convention is to assign 12 a.m. to midnight (at the beginning of the day) and 12 p.m. to noon, defining both half days to have a closed (inclusive) beginning and open (exclusive) end. 12 noon and 12 midnight can more clearly express these times.

These abbreviations represent the Latin phraes ante/post meridiem, which mean 'before/after midday'. They have been in use in English since the 17th century.

The Latin abbreviations "a.m." and "p.m." (often written "am" and "pm" or "AM" and "PM") are used in English and Spanish. In Albanian, the equivalents are "PD" and "MD", in Greek they are "πµ" and "µµ", and in Swedish (where the 12-hour clock is nowadays rarely used) they are "f.m." and "e.m.". Most other languages lack formal abbreviations for "before noon" and "after noon" and their users use the 12-hour clock only verbally and informally

The abbreviation am stands for ante-meridiem (before the Sun has crossed the line) and pm for post-meridiem (after the Sun has crossed the line). At 12 noon, the Sun is at its highest point in the sky and directly over the meridian. It is therefore neither "ante-" nor "post

Am is a helping verb used with subject "I" & Pm premium. Yeah if you have asked what is the mean of AM or PM then it would be Anti - Meridiem & Post Meridiem. And ramamber it is Meridiem not meridien
