AÜM: Die Uhrzeit - Telling Time
Die Uhrzeit - Telling Time
It's now time to learn about die Uhrzeit auf Deutsch - telling time in German.
What time is it?
Listen to the example sentences and attempt to pronounce them yourself:
- Wie spät ist es?
- Wie viel Uhr ist es?
It is _____ o'clock.
Es ist _____ Uhr.
Listen to the example sentences and attempt to pronounce them yourself:
z.B. (zum Beispiel = for example):
- It is one o'clock
- Es ist ein Uhr/Es ist eins.
- It is two o'clock
- Es ist zwei Uhr/Es ist zwei.
For precise times, you say Uhr between the hour and the minutes:
- zehn Uhr zwölf
- 10:12
A.M. and P.M.
A.M. and P.M. are not used in German-speaking countries. You can make times formed using the 12-hour clock more clear by adding the adverbs for "in the morning", "in the afternoon" etc.:
- in the morning
- morgens
- vormittags
- in the afternoon
- nachmittags
- in the evening
- abends
- in the night
- nachts
