    No need to apologize! I was expressing surprise, not displeasure.

    In the USA, as I’m assuming you know due to your clear fluency in the language, we largely rely on context but add am/pm if necessary. Most of the time when I personally discuss times, it’s for an appointment or meeting, and most of my 12:30 meetings aren’t happening thirty minutes after midnight (the ones that do aren’t usually scheduled in advance). We’ve managed so far, but there are for sure better approaches.

    I would like to reiterate that I wasn’t criticizing, just observing. My search engine says it’s 8am in Germany, so hopefully you’re having a great morning!

      I didn’t feel your reply as critics too. I also wish you have a great time, whatever time your clock might currently show.

        Just shy of 3am.
