To ask the time in Spanish, we use
the phrase '¿Qué hora es?', which
translated literally asks what hour
is it.
• To say that it is one o'clock, use the reply

Es la una.
If you'd like to be more specific, and say that a
time is in the morning, or that it is in the
afternoon/evening, you can add the following
expressions.

de la madrugada (in the wee hours of the morning)

12:00 AM – 5:59 AM

de la mañana (in the morning) 6:00 AM -11:59 AM

de la tarde (in the afternoon) 12 PM – 5:59 PM

de la noche (in the evening) 6 PM – 11:59 PM

Ejemplo:

1:00 AM 1:00 PM
1:00 am 1:00 pm

Es la una de la madrugada Es la una de la tarde

madrugada tarde
 We use the singular form
of 'is', because we are saying it
is the first hour. For
subsequent hours (2 o'clock, 3
o'clock, etc. ) we use the
plural form - son.
