AM and PM are both confusing and long. Americans like to stick with inconvenient measures. Look at all the imperial metrics they still use – terrible! The 24h clock is so much easier. 14:00 vs 2:00 PM – no possible confusion and shorter. Otherwise the military wouldn’t use it ))

Now it’s finally clear to you what 12:00 a.m. is? There’s no such animal. There is only one meridan and that is noon. Midnight is neither a.m. nor p.m. and neither is noon. It is much more clear and correct to use n. or nn. and m. or mn.

Interesting info, and when referring to 12:00, I usually write it as either “noon” or “midnight” vs 12:00pm and 12:00am, or 12 noon/midnight. I still get confused which is which!

Since midnight and noon are the meridiems referred to, it is my understanding that the two are neither AM nor PM, they are just 12:00.
