This is a fairly subjective situation. For me, I say it is evening only for the first 2-3 hours after nightfall. Of course, this varies throughout the year, depending on the season. So, in June, I often say it is 5 o'clock in the afternoon (still daylight), but in November the same time would be 5 o'clock in the evening (it's dark outside).
Noon is at 12:00 PM. Afternoon is from 12:01 PM to around 5:00 PM. Evening is from 5:01 PM to 8 PM, or around sunset. Night is from sunset to sunrise, so from 8:01 PM until 5:59 AM. This is just a general outline - it's more common to categorize these times based upon one's activities. For example, we eat breakfast in the morning and dinner in ...
Most people work during the daytime and go home in the evening. The most standard working hours for most people are from 9 am until 5 pm. It is unlikely people working these hours would consider anything before 5 pm to be "evening". The etymology of the word "evening" means the coming of the end of the day. You're probably familiar with the ...
"All day" is generally used very loosely. People will say "I've been busy/working all day" when they want to emphasise their labours, regardless of how many hours are involved. So you can use all day to mean whatever you wish. If you want to be specific, you should say from 8 a.m. till 8 p.m. or something similar (r.sole)
A possible solution could be. "I am available 24/7 (except 3 to 5 PM)" You can add unavailability for evening hours if you so desire: "I am available every day from 8 am to 10 pm (with the exception of 3 pm to 5 pm)" Share. Improve this answer. edited May 27, 2020 at 22:37.
Yes, you (@javanoob) need to learn to use the form of a sentence that’s like cutting a deck of cards and stacking the halves in the opposite order: begin an interogative sentence with the interogative pronoun. “what time are you open till today?” (same sentence you used but with the “cut deck of cards”) would have been understood easily.
The easiest way to explain, I guess, would be to compare in the evening -> time of day vs on the evenings -> date. NB: there is no "s" in "in the evening", because it's a time frame not a series of dates. I see two considerations worth examination. One, there is a distinction between "on an occasion" and "in a period".
First, you have the meanings wrong. Night is the time after the dusk that follows sunset, i.e. full dark, until the first light of dawn, which precedes sunrise. Evening is late afternoon until some time that most people would go to bed. The meaning of evening is somewhat fluid, and it can overlap the meaning of night.
12h clock vs 24h clock. As previously stated, in Spanish the shorthand AM and PM are not commonly used, instead, a 24 and 12-hour clock is used. For the 12 hour system, the phrases “ de la mañana” (AM), “de la tarde” and de la noche” are used with the last two being used in reference to PM. However, for the 24-hour system these ...
Jul 17, 2014 at 8:33. 1. In Australia you'd only say "good morning" (a) if it actually is morning, (b) if you've not yet realised it's actually afternoon, or (c) ironically, if someone was expected in the morning but arrived after noon. – nnnnnn. Dec 19, 2014 at 11:46.
