Hi Tony,
HG> No it isn't because AM (a.m. ante meridiem) is used for any time before
HG> mid-day (12 oclock), and PM (p.m. post meridiem) for any time before
HG> midnight.
TL> Almost correct - "post" means after, so PM is "after midday". :)
Yes, actually any time between midday and midnight.
It feels a little bit odd to us because we are used to night, morning,
day, afternoon and evening before we get to the night again.
HG> Well, as long as I'm not a burden on my children and other relatives
HG> I'll keep going, hi.
TL> That's a reasonable approach. :)
I hope it is.
