How do you say 10:30 in Japanese?
Half & Quarter
Telling time is easy, right? What time is it below?
It's 10:15 (ten fifteen).
That's the digital style, which is pretty common nowadays.
But what if you ask someone the time and they say, "It's quarter past ten." Can you understand them? Actually, this is a very common way to say the time in English, especially among older people.
Here are some more examples:
It's half past ten. (Actually, this is not so different from the Japanese way, '十時半 '.)
It's quarter to one.
It's ten after ten.
or
It's ten past ten.
It's ten to two.
Can you understand the following times?
It's five (minutes) after three. * 'after' or 'past'; both are OK
It's ten (minutes) past four.
It's quarter past two. (or) It's quarter after two.
It's twenty (minutes) after seven.
It's twenty-five (minutes) past one.
It's half past nine. **We DON'T say 'half after'!
It's twenty-five (minutes) to six.
It's twenty (minutes) to eleven.
It's quarter to eight.
It's ten (minutes) to twelve.
It's five (minutes) to one.
