Comment on Military Time vs 24hr?
ekky43@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 year agoIn Denmark we say “2 o’clock” or just “14”. No one says fourteen hundred, except perhaps for a few military wannabes. Likewise, no one says “14 o’clock”.
If it’s quarter past 2, we’d usually say “14-15”. Half past 2 would be “14-30”, you get the idea.

Same in Norway, unsurprisingly, but we do say 14 0 0 (fjorten null null) if making it clear that we mean 1400 exact. Otherwise like you said, klokken 14 or klokken 2.
