Javanese | Pronunciation | English |
---|---|---|
jam siji iki | [jam siːd͡ʒi iki] | It's one o'clock |
jam loro iki | [jam loɾo iki] | It's two o'clock |

jam sanga iki | [jam saŋa iki] | It's nine o'clock |

Note: "Iki" means "this" and it is not used to express the time. It is used to indicate which hour is being referred to.
