Dal'qörian Telling the time

back to main page

Dalcurian time is indicated with the 24 hour clock, and mainly denoted by the genitive case dis (see cases). When written as numbers, it's followed by an apostrophe'd capital S which stands for Stöndæel-hours:

• 12:15'S 12:15pm

• 4:25'S 4:25am

When spoken:

• pensenta dis dionsenta lit: 15 of [the hour] 12

• hecö'dionta dis tera lit: 25 of [the hour] 4
