Viertel zwei


... German for => a quarter past one (time of the day)


In German "viertel zwei" and "viertel vor zwei" must not be confused. The first version means: a quarter on the way from one to two o'clock, which is either 1.15 or 13.15. The latter means: a quarter still before us on the way from one to two o'clock, which can either mean 1.45 or 13.45.
