A British person invites a colleague for a meeting at 'half nine'.
What time are they referring to?
10:30
9:00
9:30
8:30
0
In British English, 'half' followed by an hour means 30 minutes past that hour. So, 'half nine' is 9:30. This is a common point of confusion for learners, especially those more familiar with American English, where the same time would be expressed as 'nine-thirty'.
