Now that you know how to count from 1-10 in Assamese, let's move on to telling the time.

Telling Time

Telling time is an essential life skill and helps you keep track of your schedule. In this section, you will learn how to tell time in Assamese.

• To ask the time, you can say "কি সময়?" (ki shômôy?) which means "What is the time?".

• To answer, you can say the time in hours and minutes. For example, "দুটা বাজিছে।" (duṭā bājiche.) means "It is two o'clock".

• You can also use the 24-hour clock system, which is commonly used in India. For example, "১৫ ঘণ্টা ৩০ মিনিট" (shôpônar nōttôr gôhôr pôrobôr) means "3:30 PM".

Here are some common time-related phrases that you can use in your daily conversations:

Assamese	Pronunciation	English
কেনেকৈ সময়?	kēnekai shômôy?	What is the time?
সকালে	skālē	Morning
দুপৰে	dupôrē	Afternoon
সন্ধ্যাত	sôndhyātô	Evening
