In the spoken language we say sono le sei del mattino
To say "6:00am" in Italian, you would say "le sei del mattino" or simply "le sei di mattina." Here's how you can break it down:
1. Start with the hour: "sei" means "six" in Italian.
2. Add "le" to specify that it is in the morning hours. This is optional, but it is commonly used in Italian to specify the time of day.
3. Include the preposition "di" or "del" to indicate "in the morning." Both are acceptable, so you can use either one.
Putting it all together, "le sei del mattino" or "le sei di mattina" both mean "6:00am" in Italian.
Remember that the Italian language uses a 24-hour clock, so if you want to say "6:00pm," you would use "le diciotto" which means "eighteen" in Italian. But for "6:00am," it is "sei" which means "six" in Italian.
