American cenderung menyebut jam lalu menit, dengan AM/PM
BRITISH STYLE
  • Past & To (Traditional)5:20 → twenty past five
  • Menit 1-30 → "past" ; menit 31-59 → "to" jam berikutnya.
  • Quarter & Half sangat dominan: 2:15 → quarter past two, 2:45 → quarter to three
  • Tidak menyebut "oh" untuk menit kecil, lebih ke five past eight (bukan eight oh five).
  • O'clock untuk tepat jam: 3:00 → three o'clock
Contoh British English:
▪ 8:05 → five past eight
▪ 9:15 → quarter past nine
▪ 10:55 → five to eleven
