An importing distributor may deliver to any organization to which a special occasion permit has been issued between the hours of nine o'clock antemeridian and five o'clock postmeridian. |
The antemeridian of this line passes through the Australian town of Alice Springs, although no-one knew it at the time. |
Between the hours of 7 o'clock postmeridian and 7 o'clock antemeridian. |
The first 12-hr period is often called antemeridian or AM and the second, postmeridian or PM, commonly known simply as morning and afternoon. |
The term as meridian, commonly used, conveys the thought of a principal division of time or space thus we speak of the hours before the daily noon as antemeridian. |
