oh thank you a bunch

this you said "quarter to ten(=09:45)" is i've wanted ^^

Are you learning USA or Brit English?

If Brit English, the rules are slightly different. We don't ever use 'after' with time, for example.

i want to know anything all about english, i dont care if you are a native speaker, its american or not such as first floor or spelling(center, color etc)

that's why im here to learn english

thanks

You should avoid to mix American English and British English.

US It's a quarter after four.
