23. This diagram (pic. 4) shows the cycle of a 24-hour day and the |
|||||||||
words we use to describeбits parts. The day starts at midnight (at the |
|||||||||
bottom of the diagram). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|||
There are 24 hours inиa day. The day is divided into "day(time)" and |
|||||||||
"night(-time)". Daytime is from sunrise (this varies, but we can say approx- |
|||||||||
imately 6am) toСsunset (we can say approximately 6pm). Night-time is from sunset to sunrise.
Every day starts precisely at midnight. AM (Ante-Meridiem = before noon) starts just after midnight. PM (Post-Meridiem=after noon) starts just after noon. This means that 12am and 12pm have no meaning.
