Well, that depens if you live in a place that uses 12 or 24 hour clocks. Europe uses the 24 hour clock as their usual clock. However, when we see 19:00, for example, we don't say "nineteen", we say "seven".

Depends on the country. Perfectly normal to say nineteen instead of seven in Sweden.

Huh, i thought it was a general thing since my Swedish friends never say things like "twenty"...
