        @pjkoeleman Yes, “Es ist zehn vor halb zwei” would be better as “Es ist zwanzig nach eins”

          Then we have to ask @j-e-f-f if he will changes this in the German language.

            I am ashamed to tell this, I’m living in Germany for years but cannot speak any Deutsche. :)

            You can see this.

                @Sean From the link you sent, it appears that “Viertel” should always be capitalized, much like “Uhr.”

                @willfri @strawberry-3-141 is that the case?

                  Viertel is a noun. viertel is an adjective. All nouns begin with capital in German.

                  Additionally,
                  Eins is a feminine-noun. It means ‘number 1’
                  eins is a numeral, but varied form. The root form is ein. eins is used as neutral-noun when used alone without any other subjective. So, eins is shorten from ein Uhr. One more funny thing, Uhr is feminine-noun, so eine Uhr means a clock not an hour

                    I just pushed an update to correct the German layout. Here’s an example:

                      erm… sounds strange to me (Switzerland)
                      We say: “Es ist zwanzig nach zwölf”
                      or “es ist fünf vor halb eins”

                      or “es ist fünf nach eins”
                      or “es ist zwanzig vor eins”

                      but nobody here says “zehn vor halb eins”

                      … complicated this world languages, everybody talks different :D

                        :D
                        In Standarddeutsch(Hochdeutsch),
                        08:20

                        • Es ist zwanzig nach acht.
                        • Es ist zehn vor halb neun.
                          both are available. (Also, zwanzig vor = zehn nach halb)

                        How about this?
                        08:15

                        • Es ist Viertel nach acht.
                        • Es ist viertel acht.

                        And in some southern German, even this is available.

                        09:45

                        • Es ist drei viertel neun.

                        09:40

                        • Es ist fünf Minuten vor drei viertel neun.

                        That is why I dropped my German lesson. :)
