ante meridiem international standard format military time used to indicate time 12 hour timehy​

Ante meridiem (a.m.) means “before noon” in Latin and refers to times from 12:00 midnight to 11:59 in the morning in the 12-hour time format. The International Standard Format for time is the 24-hour military time, where instead of repeating numbers from 1–12 twice a day, you use 00:00 to 23:59. For example:6:00 a.m. in 12-hour = 06:00 in 24-hour6:00 p.m. in 12-hour = 18:00 in 24-hour This helps avoid confusion because each time only appears once.
