  • Next message: Colleen Hogan-Tinsman: "challenge question #1"

    I offered this question as an extra credit for my classes. I was amazed at
    the number of students that did not know the meanings of these everyday
    expressions. One of my students submitted this:
            AM stands for the time from midnight to noon. The letters A and M
    are the abbreviation of ante meridiem, the Latin phrase for "before noon".
    PM stands for the time from noon to midnight. The letters P and M stand for
    post meridiem.
