Russian uses a similar, but slightly different way. We always mention the NEXT hour, unless it's an exact hour. 1:00: "odin čas rovno" (one o'clock [hour] sharp, with a cardinal numeral, "one" is often omitted). 1:10: "des'at' minut vtorogo" (ten minutes of the second [hour], yes, only in this way and with an ordinal numeral!). 1:30: "pol vtorogo" (half of the second [hour], again always with an ordinal!). 1:50: "bez des'ati dva" (literally, two without ten, here a cardinal numeral). Also we usually do not say "quarter" (but using "quarter" is considered perfectly correct), simply "15" is way more common. Do any other languages use the same principle?

First of all, I want to thank the author of the channel for making this beautiful and useful video for us! Many people are embarrassed to speak a foreign language if they have no speaking skills. People are afraid to hear criticism from others in their address. It all comes from having a psychological complex - to make a mistake. But, after all, he who does nothing is not wrong! In Yuriy Ivantsiv's workshop "Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign language" states that we need to talk as much as possible: with yourself, with the mirror, with inanimate objects, with children and with pets. Find an interlocutor in real life or online. Talk without shyness. People won't care how you speak. They understand that you are a foreigner, as long as they understand you. They may even acknowledge your progress in their language and compliment you. However, always be prepared for criticism of your speaking skills. If you have the will to speak, you will gain an interesting interlocutor to consolidate your knowledge. Everyone is strewn with mistakes - don't be afraid to learn from them. As the Latin wisdom says, "walk and thou shalt not go astray". In the book "Polyglot Notes" by Yuriy Ivantsiv an entire chapter is devoted to the development of spoken language. Here you will find many useful tips and each student can choose a technique that suits him or her best! I wish you all the best of luck in your language learning!

You explain everything so well!! Loved the video :)

In Luxembourgish we do it the exact same way! I love how the more I learn about Swedish, the more I realize how similar our languages are! :D For example "fem i halv två" would be "fënnef vir hallwer zwou", so again "five before half two" ^^ thanks again for the educational video!

This is surprisingly very similar to my native language which is Indonesian, especially the "fem i halv två" logic 😂

Latvians also ask about the clock (not time). :)

I can't see many differences between the German and the Swedish way.
