In German if you translate it, it would be 15 o'clock. So we actually do say 15, but not 15-hundred and we don't call it military time.

24 hour time only really became a thing here back in the early 80s all thanks to the video recorder cause they used 24hr clock for programming a recording of tv

Yeah, we also automatically convert it to regular time, so if someone asks the time we look at our watch that reads 20:40 and we’d answer 8:40 or even twenty to 9, but we’d never really say 20:40.

Swedes we often use 24h format when speaking if it’s the full hour. We would for example say “see you at 17”.

Hi Luke, I’ve never written time as anything but 7am and 7pm etc… although I do know the 24 hour clock (military time) as we were brought up on it, as you quite rightly said.

In the US: it’s only 5, too early to leave work. In Europe: it’s 17, going home. Cheers.
