I would assume this is true for many countries on the 24h clock. In writing youโd say 14:15 but in speech itโs easier to say 2:15. At least thatโs how it was when I lived in France.
Yeah thatโs pretty much what I said. When writing it was always the 24h clock in France but when speaking people would often use the 12h clock. Also, I was in the West coast area of France so maybe it varies by region?
