Is AM or PM capitalized?
AM stands for ante meridiem and PM stands for post meridiem, which are Latin phrases meaning before midday, and after midday. When it comes to abbreviations and acronyms, these letters should be capitalized. Just like you’d write BBC, NBC, or your ABCs, AM and PM should be capitalized.
Is PM spaced?
Time. There is no space between the number and the am/pm definer. Do not use full stops in ‘am’ or ‘pm’. Use a full stop rather than a colon to separate the minutes from the hours.
Is it 2pm or 2 pm?
In addition, when writing the times 1:00 pm, 2:00 pm, etc., it is perfectly acceptable to omit the zeroes and write 1 pm, 2 pm, instead. Finally, note that while in the US we use a 12-hour clock, some countries use a 24-hour clock, or military time.
What does AM and PM mean?
The abbreviation am stands for ante-meridiem (before the Sun has crossed the meridian line) and pm stands for post-meridiem (after the Sun has crossed the meridian line).
