    Day and Night

    There are 24 hours in a day. The day is divided into "day(time)" and "night(time)". Daytime is from sunrise (this varies, but we can say approximately 6am) to sunset (we can say approximately 6pm). Night-time is from sunset to sunrise. Every day starts precisely at midnight. AM (Ante-Meridiem = before noon) starts just after midnight. PM (Post-Meridiem=after noon) starts just after midday. This means that 12am and 12pm have no meaning. This diagram shows the cycle of a 24-hour day and the words we use to describe its parts. The day starts at midnight (at the bottom of the diagram).

    The word day can have two meanings: 1. the 24 hours between one midnight and the next 2. the time between sunrise and sunset (as distinct from night) See Days of the Week
