How to Say Military Time

  • Read each digit of the four-digit number individually when the hour is below 10 (e.g., 0800 is "Zero Eight Hundred").
  • For hours 10 and above, use the standard number name (e.g., 1400 is "Fourteen Hundred").
  • When minutes are not zero, say the hour digits then the minute digits (e.g., 0830 is "Zero Eight Thirty", 1545 is "Fifteen Forty-Five").
  • Midnight (0000) is "Zero Hundred" or sometimes called "Zero Zero Zero Zero."
  • In practice "hours" is often appended (e.g., "Zero Eight Hundred Hours").
