It's important to note that the word "zero" is used for 12 AM. After that, we simply use the numbers from one to twelve to represent the hours of the day. | |||
== Minutes == | |||
To express minutes in Polish, we use the word "minuta" (minute) followed by the number of minutes. Let's look at some examples: | |||
* | * pięć minut (five minutes) | ||
* | * dziesięć minut (ten minutes) | ||
* dwadzieścia minut (twenty minutes) | |||
* trzydzieści minut (thirty minutes) | |||
* czterdzieści pięć minut (forty-five minutes) | |||
Remember that when expressing minutes, we always use the plural form of the word "minuta" (minute). | |||
== | == 12-Hour Time Format == | ||
In the 12-hour time format, we combine the words for hours and minutes to tell the time. Let's see some examples: | |||

* Dwa dwadzieścia (two twenty) | |||
* Cztery czterdzieści (four forty) | |||
* Siedem pięć (seven five) | |||
* Dziesięć dziesięć (ten ten) | |||
As you can see, we simply combine the word for the hour with the word for the minutes to form the complete time expression. | |||

In addition to the 12-hour time format, Poland also uses the 24-hour time format, especially in formal and official contexts. The 24-hour time format is commonly used in train schedules, business meetings, and military time. Let's see how we express time in the 24-hour format: | |||
* Jeden trzydzieści pięć (13:35) | |||
* Dwa dwadzieścia (14:20) | |||
* Cztery czterdzieści (16:40) | |||
* Siedem pięć (19:05) | |||
* Dziesięć dziesięć (22:10) | |||
As you can see, the 24-hour time format uses the same expressions as the 12-hour format, but without the need to specify AM or PM. The numbers represent the hours and minutes, respectively. | |||
== Other Time Expressions == | |||
In addition to telling the time, there are other time-related expressions that are commonly used in Polish. Let's explore some of them: | |||
