hi,
When you can call eleven oh five as eleven after five,why can't you call two oh nine as two after nine smilies/smiley.gif smilies/smiley.gif

Hi! Where did you hear eleven oh five as eleven after five? I can't say I've ever heard that before. As far as I know, eleven oh five is 11:05 and that's all! Anyone else? Am I missing something here?

You can say "5 after 11" for the time 11:05.
on the right reading...

Saying eleven after five is wrong for 11:05. As it is clearly stated, it is eleven oh five.
good comment

Hi,

no you can't say 6 o'clock pm. You could say 6 pm... or 6 am. Adding o'clock makes it sound awkward smilies/smiley.gif

with 30 after 10, again this is awkward.
Half past 10 (60 minutes in an hour - half would be 30) is one option.
ten thirty or half past 10 are the best choices, the rest are awkward.

hope that helps!

eleven o five, maybe they heard it as eleven "of" five? Just a guess. By the way I'm learning English too. And what again is the time when they say 11 of 5, is it 5:11. eleven after 5, or eleven minutes "before" 5:00?

written by Philip, June 19, 2010
Normally 11.05 in short, we read as 5 past 11 whereas 10.55,we read as 5 to 11 when we are talking about time. In scale ratio, 5:11 is usually read as 5 is to 11. Thanks.
