Telling the Time
The English ‘am’ and ‘pm’ are replaced by whole words rather than abbreviations. For example ‘9 am’ is literally jam sembilan pagi, ‘9 in the morning’ and ‘9 pm’ is jam sembilan malam, ‘9 at night’.

| jam tiga kurang seperempat |

| jam tiga lewat seperempat |

Unlike English, three thirty is not given in Indonesian as half past three, but as half to four.
| in the morning (1 – 11 am) |
