1. En ingls los colores son INVARIABLES en GENERO (masculino y femenino) y

NUMERO (singular y plural). Es decir, white significa "blanco, blanca, blancos,
blancas". Por lo tanto, son muy adaptables al hacer una frase u oracin.
2. En ingls los colores, usados como sustantivos, NUNCA estn precedidos por el
artculo definido the. Veamos: Red is a beautiful color, El rojo es un color hermoso;
Green is my favorite color, El verde es mi color preferido.
3. Para indicar que un color es "claro" u "oscuro" debes anteponer los adjetivos light
(claro) o dark (oscuro) al color correspondiente. Ej.: light purple, violeta claro; dark
purple, violeta oscuro.

The time

What time is it?

It's five o'clock in the
morning. It's 5:00 a.m.

It's seven o'clock

in the morning.
It's 7:00 a.m.

It's twelve o'clock.

It's noon.
It's 12:00 noon.

It's four o'clock

in the afternoon.
It's 4:00 p.m.

It's seven o'clock

in the evening.
It's 7:00 p.m.

It's twelve o'clock

at night. It's midnight.
It's 12:00 midnight.

1. Observa que en ingls la hora siempre va precedida por un verbo en singular: It's
one o'clock (Es la una); It's two o'clock (Son las dos).
2. Los americanos no suelen utilizar la expresin half past (y media). En su lugar
tratan a la hora como si fuese digital. En cambio s utilizan a quarter past (y cuarto) y
a quarter to (menos cuarto).
3. No se utiliza oralmente el reloj de 24 horas excepto para el caso de horarios de
aviones, trenes y mnibus.
4. Para decir que son las 03:00 y no las 15:00, se puede expresar como "three o'clock
in the afternoon". 17:30 se dira "half past five in the afternoon" y para indicar 23:00
se prefiere "eleven o'clock in the evening".
5. Para diferenciar las horas de la maana y las de la tarde se emplea am (ante
meridiem, antes del medioda) o pm (post meridiem, despus del medioda). Ej: Come
home at 08:00 am (Ven a casa a las 8 de la maana); Come home at 07:56 pm (Ven a
casa a las 07:56 de la noche). Cuando se utiliza am o pm no se puede usar o'clock
(en punto). Ej: Come home at three o'clock in the afternoon (Come home at 3
pm o'clock in the afternoon ).
