AM vs PM

When 12 hour time is used we sometimes add am or pm to the time to distinguish the first half of the day from the second half.


AM: Is from midnight to noon (Midnight...Morning...11:59 am)

PM: Is from noon to midnight (Noon...Evening...11:59 pm)


NOTE:

12:00 pm is noon
12:00 am is midnight
