Germany uses a 24-hour time system, with 12-hour format for casual conversations. Numbers 1-59 are used for telling time, numbers over 59 aren't used. Common time words include "Uhr" (o'clock), "um" (at), "vor" (before), "nach" (after)
"Quarter to eight" means 15 minutes before 8 o'clock. Can be expressed as "half past seven" or "fifteen till eight". Common in English-speaking countries
Japanese uses military time (24-hour clock) or AM/PM for time discussions. Time is expressed using words like jikan (時間), ji (時), and fun/pun (分). Fun changes to pun due to rendaku (sound change)
AM stands for ante meridiem, meaning "before noon". PM stands for post meridiem, meaning "after noon". AM refers to time between midnight and noon. PM refers to time between noon and midnight
Time is expressed by adding "ji" (hours) and "fun/pun" (minutes). Numbers 11-19 start with "十" (juu) followed by the number. "Desu" (です) is added after the time expression
