What time does Jean arrive at his English lesson?
What time does Jean arrive at his English lesson?
This is incorrect. The time "6.05pm" would be expressed as "five past six".
This is incorrect. The time "6.55pm" would be expressed as "five to seven".
This is incorrect. The time "5.05pm" would be expressed as "five past five".
This is correct. Mr. Bent says: "It's five minutes to six!" Remember, for times where the "minutes" are 30, or before 30, we use "past". For example: five past five (5.05); quarter past five (5.15); half past five (5.30). For times after (5):30, we use "to". For example: twenty-five to six (5.35); quarter to six (5.45); five to six (5.55).
