In Japanese, hours are counted using the term \u201cji\u201d (\u6642). The numbers 1 to 12 are used, similar to the standard 12-hour clock system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 o\u2019clock \u2013 ichi-ji (\u4e00\u6642)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 o\u2019clock \u2013 ni-ji (\u4e8c\u6642)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3 o\u2019clock \u2013 san-ji (\u4e09\u6642)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4 o\u2019clock \u2013 yo-ji (\u56db\u6642)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

5 o\u2019clock \u2013 go-ji (\u4e94\u6642)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6 o\u2019clock \u2013 roku-ji (\u516d\u6642)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8 o\u2019clock \u2013 hachi-ji (\u516b\u6642)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9 o\u2019clock \u2013 ku-ji (\u4e5d\u6642)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

10 o\u2019clock \u2013 juu-ji (\u5341\u6642) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

11 o\u2019clock \u2013 juu ichi -ji (\u5341\u4e00\u6642)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

12 o\u2019clock \u2013 juu ni-ji (\u5341\u4e8c\u6642)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Telling Minutes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For counting minutes, Japanese use \u201cfun\u201d (\u5206) or \u201cpun\u201d (\u5206) depending on the number. The pattern varies slightly with different numbers. Here\u2019s a quick overview:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5 minutes \u2013 go-fun (\u4e94\u5206)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10 minutes \u2013 j\u016bppun (\u5341\u5206)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

15 minutes \u2013 j\u016bgo-fun (\u5341\u4e94\u5206)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

30 minutes \u2013 san-j\u016bppun (\u4e09\u5341\u5206) or han (\u534a) for \u201chalf past\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expressing Time of Day in Japanese<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Different times of the day have specific terms in Japanese. Here are the main terms:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Morning: Asa (\u671d)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Noon: Hiru (\u663c)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Evening: Y\u016bgata (\u5915\u65b9)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Night: Yoru (\u591c)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These terms help you clarify the general time of day without needing to specify an exact hour. For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 \u201cI go jogging in the morning\u201d<\/em> \u2013 \u671d\u306b\u30b8\u30e7\u30ae\u30f3\u30b0\u3092\u3057\u307e\u3059 (Asa ni jogingu o shimasu).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you do need to specify a time, you can combine these terms with specific hours, like Gozen ku-ji (\u5348\u524d\u4e5d\u6642) for \u201c9 AM\u201d or Gogo roku-ji (\u5348\u5f8c\u516d\u6642) for \u201c6 PM.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
