@@ileana8360 While your translation might be literal, it just ignores the context why it actually makes sense. Similar to how you can say 5 o'clock in English, you say 5 Uhr, meaning that Uhr refers to a certain hour/time of the day in contrast to hour as a time interval.

That's interesting, for us Hungarians clock, hour and watch are more or less the same, but" weather" is rather with "time" interchangeable, however only in one direction, so weather can be time, but instead of "time" (as hour and minute) you can't use the word "weather". Moreover, weather is "time-walking" for us. 😉

At least in Spanish, I do not know about other romance languages, "time" means many things, one of them is "Duration of things which are subject to change", the weather constantly changes so you can ask for the "weather time", in romance languages, the word order is reversed so it starts with the word "time" and it eventually was shortened to just "time". Because of this possible confusion with "what time is it?", we use time measurements when asking for what time is it (in this aspect, for us, english is not conclusive enough when asking time. Are you asking for eras, decades, years, hours or moments? It heavily depends on context).

@Blullaby
Жыл бұрын
I'd guess TEMPS and TEMPÉRATURE (temperature) are related to each other etymologically (: and so we kept it to refer to the temperature/ weather... But if it's truly too confusing, you could get away with talking about 'la météo' - it gave meteorological in English, and that's what we call the weather forecast. Example: "T'as vu la météo pour ce weekend ? Il va faire super froid !" (Have you seen the weather predictions for this weekend? It's going to be very cold !)

As a Breton (well, technically french), I disagree. Even if in my ancestors language we do the same ("amzer" for both time and weather, "eur" when asking for what time is it). At least, in latin languages, it could be because of the ethymology, for the Breton language I still have no clue...

Actually, in Hungarian you can also use time for weather, but that's rather because we like to shorten our words. Full word for weather is időjárás, but we just say idő (which also means time).
@PhantomKING113

I feel like this should, based on the stereotype, be Spanish xd. The language still holds, although asking what hour it is, at least in Spanish, can often be answered with the hour and minutes in multiples of 15, or also words like "almost" (casi) or "passed" (pasadas) (so like it's a bit past the hour specified, so if it's XX:48 it's "menos cuarto pasadas"). "O'clock" is "en punto" (≈on point). It's common to just answer with the minutes if you already know the hours, so like if the bus is meant to come at 9:17 and I'm waiting for it with someone since 9:02, and they ask me the time at 9:14, I just say "Y cuarto casi." ("and a quarter almost", meaning "almost quarter past").

@@amberwingthefairycat Well, that’s with the context of it. I’m saying it directly translates into “point”. I’ve never heard of “點/点” directly translating into “hour” before. And idk if i just got what “directly translate” means wrong or something but i’m saying if you translate it word by word. so “三点” directly translate would be translated by doing “三” = ”three” and ”点” = ”point”. Now that i think about, “几点了?” would more likely directly translate to “how many point is it?”
