--description--

AM and PM are used to tell time during the day. AM means the time from midnight to noon (for example, 8:00 AM is in the morning). PM means the time from noon to midnight (for example, 6:00 PM is in the evening).

In English, the day is divided into two periods using AM and PM. AM stands for Ante Meridiem, which is Latin for "before midday". It refers to the time from midnight (12:00 AM) to noon (12:00 PM). So, when you say 9:00 AM, it means 9 in the morning.

PM stands for Post Meridiem, which is Latin for "after midday". It refers to the time from noon (12:00 PM) to just before midnight (11:59 PM). So, when you say 3:00 PM, it means 3 in the afternoon.
