9:00 A.M. Som Mung Chow

10:00 A.M. See Mung Chow Ton Chow 0700_1100

11:00 A.M Hah Mung Chow

Apparently more commonly [L]jet [M]moong [H]chao etc. nowadays.

Surely morning is from 0600 to 1200? Similarly for the other periods, thoguh the boundary between early and late afternoon is a bit fuzzy - [L]sii [M]moong [L]baai or [L]sii [M]moong [M]yen.

using 24 hour time is common now too (in many pleaces ... maybe not out in the sticks)

That was a good call found it later I also left off 6:00 P/M. so back to word LOL

Miltary time everyone seems to ue it even here in Udon.

I was really hoping to find a clock face example to share wiht the class no luck so far.

Correction for some mistakes.

2:00 P.M. Bai Song Mung

3:00 P.M. Bai Sam Mung

4:00 P.M. Bai Sii Mung

and

7:00 A.M. Nung Mung Chow <--- I rarely hear this one. I think we typically call it "Jed Mung Chow".

8:00 A.M. Song Mung Chow

9:00 A.M. Som Mung Chow

For the last two cases, it is like an old fashion (in my opinion) to call it that way. It is not clear if you forget to say "Chow". So, it is clearer to call Pad Mung Chow (or Pad Mung) for 8:00 a.m. and Koaw Mung Chow for 9:00 a.m. In this case, no one gets confused because we typically call 8:00 p.m. as "Song Tum" and 9:00 p.m. as "Sam Tum".

I have a very nice one that I made, though I just noticed that having recently moved to a new computer there is some problem with the Thai font display. Let me try to correct and I'll put it up...

Are there examples using a clock that could be posted?

Attached is an MS Word doc file that contains a 24 hour clock representation of Thai time. The original is in Visio.

Each Thai time segment is color coded - above the horizon are the night hours, below are day hours.

The small number(s) outside the circle indicate the number as it is said in Thai in conjunction with the phrase inside the circle of the same color.

The morning hours offer two choices of numbers, though both choices begin with 6.

4PM can be either 4 bai mong or 4 mong yen.

Hope this helps you, it did finally unlock the key for me once I had mapped it out this way.

Thanks the clock example was exactly what I was looking for I will share it with the class and teacher for her future use. I think that will help to get a little mud out of the water

CSS, right you are, it is bai 4 mong. I was up and posting at 4:30 in the morning, and careless.

The clock has it right.

Kaw thot khrap.

Hello you experts .

Is it true a similar six hour system was used by the Royal Navy for hundreds of years to describe the different watch periods on naval ships ?

[Clearly the watch on our wrist derives from the sailors' watch on ships ]
