Slide 7 - Tekstslide

Het is half twaalf.
It is half past eleven.

Slide 8 - Tekstslide

Slide 9 - Tekstslide

Note:
a.m. is used from midnight to noon; 
p.m. is used from noon to midnight.
noon: 12.00 in the afternoon (in de middag)
midnight: 00.00 (middernacht)
In English we don't use the 24 hour system that we use. Instead they use a.m. and p.m. This stands for ante meridiem and post meridiem. You can forget the meaning, as long as you remember when to use which one.
extra note:
als het 9 uur in de ochtend is, zeg je nine a.m. óf nine in the morning. Dus niet nine a.m. in the morning! Da's dubbelop!
