Cara Membaca jam

 Jam + Menit
Cara ini merupakan cara yang paling mudah untuk menunjukan waktu, hanya dibacakan
saja angkanya dalam bahasa inggris.
Contoh :
03.30 = It's three thirty (Itu jam tiga tigapuluh)
06.45 = It's six forty-five (itu enam empatpuluh lima)
10.20 = It’s ten twenty

 Minutes + past/to +hour

Pada cara ini kita harus menyebutkan menit-nya dulu baru jam-nya dan memakai kata 'past'
atau 'to' untuk menerangkan kurang atau lebihnya menit pada jam tersebut.
Contoh :
08.10 = It's ten past eight (Itu jam delapan lewat sepuluh menit)
08.55 = It's five (minutes) to nine (lima menit lagi menuju jam sembilan/ jam sembilan kurang
lima menit)
 03. 30  half past three
