<\/strong><\/p>\n

The different ways of asking time<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

Saatiniz ka\u00e7?<\/p>\n

Afedersiniz saatiniz ka\u00e7 acaba? (polite)<\/p>\n

Saat ka\u00e7 diye sorabilir miyim? (very polite)<\/p>\n

Saati sorabilir miyim?<\/p>\n

Saat ka\u00e7 s\u00f6yleyebilir misiniz?(very polite)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Do not worry of memorising them all. I just wanted you to be aware of different ways of asking questions. Using only \u201cSaat ka\u00e7<\/strong>?\u201d is more than acceptable.<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

1-<\/strong> Easy way of telling the time is just to tell the numbers in digital clock.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Saat ka\u00e7?<\/strong> (10:45)<\/p>\n

Saat on k\u0131rk be\u015f.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Saat ka\u00e7?<\/strong> (01:20)<\/p>\n

Saat bir yirmi.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Saatiniz ka\u00e7?<\/strong> (05:50)<\/p>\n

Saat be\u015f elli.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Saati sorabilir miyim?<\/strong> (16:30)<\/p>\n

Saat on alt\u0131 otuz.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In Turkish we don\u2019t have am<\/strong> and pm.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

But we use sabah<\/strong> ve ak\u015fam<\/strong>, \u00f6\u011fleden sonra<\/strong> instead. There is not a certain rule when to use them.<\/p>\n

For example if we are talking about 2 am, we say \u201csabah iki<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n

If it is 6 pm we can say \u201cak\u015fam alt\u0131<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n

If it is 3 pm we say \u201c\u00f6\u011fleden sonra \u00fc\u00e7\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Let\u2019s make a chart but please do not worry about it too much. There is not a certain rule.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Between 00.00 to 12.00 you can use sabah<\/p>\n

Between 12:00 to 17:00 you can use \u00f6\u011fleden sonra<\/p>\n

Between17:00 to 24:00 you can use ak\u015fam<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2-<\/strong> Telling the time properly<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I am sorry I am not able to draw clocks here, please excuse my it skills. So we will use digital clock to explain the time.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When it is on the hour<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

05:00 Saat be\u015f<\/p>\n

14:00 Saat on d\u00f6rt or saat iki.<\/p>\n

03:00 Saat \u00fc\u00e7.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When it is on the half hour<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

We use bu\u00e7uk<\/strong> after the hour.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

04:30\u00a0 Saat d\u00f6rt bu\u00e7uk.<\/strong><\/p>\n

06:30\u00a0 Saat alt\u0131 bu\u00e7uk.<\/strong><\/p>\n

12:30\u00a0 Saat on iki bu\u00e7uk<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When it is quarter past<\/span> or quarter to<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00e7eyrek ge\u00e7iyor<\/strong> for quarter past<\/p>\n

\u00e7eyrek va<\/strong>r for quarter to<\/p>\n
