 If it is 30 minutes after the hour (half past), you add on “y media.”  4:30 = Son las cuatro y media.  If it is 15 minutes past you say “y cuarto.”  2:15= Son las dos y cuarto.

 15 minutes til the hour (Quarter til) = “Cuarto para…”  5:45 = Cuarto para las seis  7:45 =

 For any other times you say “y” and the number of minutes.  For example: 7:27 = Son las siete y veintisiete.  Or simply: Son las siete veintisiete.  3:46 = Son las tres y cuarenta y seis  Or: Son las tres cuarenta y seis.
