When a question begins with WHEN, 

the answer is always about time. 

“When do you get up in the morning?” 

“I get up in the morning at seven o’clock.” 

To tell the time, we use TO before the hour. 

4:40 pm = twenty to five or four forty in the afternoon 

2:45 pm = a quarter to three or two forty five in the afternoon 

We use PAST after the hour. 

6:05 = five past six 

7:15 = fifteen past seven or a quarter past seven 

 

8:30 = half past eight or eight thirty
