Wait, how would you know whether migrants use the 24 hour clock?

You're not supposed to say "we meet at fifteen thirty", you just say half past three or, in non-English languages sometimes "three in the afternoon".

You only write it as 24 hours because it saves you having to add extra letters to solve the ambiguity. When I interact with Americans I also write "three PM", it's just being polite.
