Veelgemaakte fout:
Learners often mix up a.m. and p.m., for example writing *7 p.m.* when they mean seven in the morning. Another common mistake is writing it without periods or space in very formal writing (e.g. *7pm* instead of *7 p.m.*), although modern informal usage often accepts *pm* or *PM*. Some learners incorrectly use p.m. with 24‑hour times like *18:00 p.m.*, which is wrong; p.m. is only for 12‑hour times (e.g. *6 p.m.*).
