    very good!! But pay attention some expression: "er dian" means 2:00 Tow hours before is "liang xiao shi yi qian" liang=er=tow, here you have to use "liang", not "er". Before= zhi qian (not ji qian) It was 8:15 2 hours ago=liang xiao shi zhi qian shi ba dian yi ke. The order is different from the English expression.

    Based on your version, I correct a little with English meaning for individual phrases because of many numbers. xian zai shi shi dian shi wu fen, shi er yue er shi si now is 4 o'clock 15 munites, 12 month 24 hao. Hai you san shi fen zhong dao shi dian date. still have 30 minutes to 10 o'clock si shi wu fen. liang xiao shi qian shi ba dian yi ke . 45 minutes. 2 hours ago is 8 o'clock 1/4 It is 1/4 past 10 december 24th. It will be 10.45 in 30 minutes. It was 8.15 2 hours ago

    Fantastic, congratulation! You are able to use Chinese pinyin in Unit 3-3 to express time. Your sentence patterns for time are correct. Your writing is concise, fluent, beautiful and comprehensible. I just made a minor change in above version. The other tutors' expressions are different expressions for the time. You may watch out for your missing words and the adverbial time phrases in the beginning of the sentence (er dian ji qian). Thank you so much for the great work. Please keep it up. Best wishes to you! 非常好! 您能用拼音清楚地表达熟悉的意思。您能在熟悉的题目下用课内和课外的知识,创造中文句子。您的句子简明, 流利,是可理解的。 我为您做了一点修改。非常感谢您。继续努力!我为您祝福! Happy Holiday! 祝您节日快乐! http://www.123greetings.com/events/christmas_world_day/chinese/chinese3.html

    The difference between "er" and "liang" 1."er" is used in counting 一 二 三 十一 十二 十三 二十 一百零二 第二 十分之二 其二 初二 2. "liang" is used for totaling and measureing. "两"is used in front of measure words: 两点钟,两天, 两个小时 两包糖 两本书 两把椅子

    中文表达时间的顺序通常是:年月日时分秒。一般来讲,你会说今天12月24号,现在10点15分。 ji qian 我猜你可能想说yiqian(以前)
