Common Mistakes

  • Ja, bitte. Bei 6:15 Uhr morgens.

    “bei” is used for approximate times (e.g., “bei fünf Uhr”), not for exact points.

  • Ja, bitte. Am 6:15 Uhr morgens.

    “am” is used for dates or days, not for a specific clock time.

Cultural Tip

Germans value punctuality highly; giving an exact time (including minutes) shows respect for the other person’s schedule. In informal speech you might drop “Uhr” and just say “Um sechs Uhr fünfzehn”, but in most contexts the full “Uhr” is preferred.
