英语中 时间 如何表达
通常用英文表示年份日期时，
采用月+日+年的形式，
比方2003年6月10日，就是June(6月）+ the tenth（10日） +two thousand three（2003年）.
值得注意的是，在讲到日期的时候，通常用序数词，如用first,second,third之类的
至于时间表示的就可分别上午和下午，
1:00a.m.指的是凌晨1点，而1:00p.m.指下午1点，及13:00
差几分到几点的如2点差2分，可表示为two to two,
几点几分的如2：30,可以说thirty past two 或者half past two ,
由此可以推出时间的正确表达法。
英语时间表达法巧记
时间天天陪伴在我们身边，可不少同学在学习英语时间表达法时，总会感到困惑。下面我为同学们介绍一些巧记方法，希望能给同学们解开谜团。 我们一般在时间前加介词at 表示“在”。
e g ：在三点——at three （o‘clock）；
若表示的时间不太确定，则可在其前面加上介词about或around表“大约”。
e g：I get up at around six o’clock in the morning.（我早上大约六点钟起床）。
若想表明具体上下午，还可在时间后加am /a.m.上午 和 pm/ p.m.下午（13：00-24：00 应表达为：1：00pm-12：00pm）。
e g ：I go to bed at nine pm.=I go to bed at nine in the evening.（我晚上九点钟睡觉）。
具体的表达法如下：
1、整点表达法：钟点数+o‘clock 译为“几点”
e g：1：00 ——one o‘clock 10：00 ——ten o’clock
2、非整点表达法（1）顺读法：“钟点数+分钟数”译为“几点几分”
e g：7：10 ——seven ten 1：58——one fifty-eight 11：06 ——eleven-o- six （表零几分时可用O表示）
（2）逆读法：（使用介词 ① past超出、过 ② to差）
A：不超出30分钟：“分钟数+past+钟点数” 译为“几点几分”
e g：7：10 ——ten past seven B：超出30分钟：（60-原分钟数）+ to +（原钟点数+1）
译为“差几分就几点”
e g：9：48——twelve to ten 差12分就10点 （60-48= 12分， 9+1=10点）
1：58——two to two 差2分就2点 （60-58=2分， 1+1=2点）
3、特殊表达法（使用名词① quarter 一刻钟 ②half 一半）
15分钟：a quarter past 4：15——a quarter past four 30分钟：half past 9：30——half past nine 45分钟：a quarter to 5：45——a quarter to six（to表“差”原钟点数需加1）
好了，看完以上的巧记，同学们是否有所收获呢？最后再告诉同学们一个口诀：时间顺读时后分，逆读法分后时。三十以内past连，三十以后to中间。分用六十减放前，时后加一不能欠。
