Dialect clock in Hormersdorf (Greifenstein area)

In the whole area the clock was read in a very simple way.

Stay half, quarter, three quarters and around.
The digits always refer to the next hour.
e.g. 2:10 p.m. = two digit three
or 7:20 a.m. = four digit eights

At the moment I only know my grandmother, who still tells the time like that.

Some people live in their own time. In Hormersdorf this does the whole village, at least in the vernacular. Who knows what to do with the time of digits six? The Hormersdorf already. With the dialect clock this own time account is also brought to the non-Hormersdorf.
Oh well, still to dissolve the time up in Hormersdorfer Zeitrechnung, five past half past five or seventeen-thirty-five.
