TELLING THE TIME

When telling the time, it’s important to highlight that we can simply say the hour followed by the minutes (ex.: 4:45  It’s four
forty-five). We can also tell the time the way native speakers do most of times (ex.: 4:45  It’s a quarter to five).

CHECK THE FOLLOWING PICTURE AND THE EXPRESSIONS USED WHEN THE MINUTE HAND GETS THE NUMBER

 08:00  It’s eight o’clock  08:40  It’s twenty to nine

 08:10  It’s ten past eight  08:45  It’s a quarter to nine
 08:15  It’s a quarter past eight  08:50  It’s ten to nine
 08:30  It’s half past eight  09:00  It’s nine o’clock
