Reading O'Clock Times

A clock has two hands. The short hand shows the hour. The long hand shows the minutes. When the long hand points to 12, we say "o'clock".

Examples:
Short hand on 3, long hand on 12 = 3 o'clock
Short hand on 7, long hand on 12 = 7 o'clock
Short hand on 12, long hand on 12 = 12 o'clock
