The time zone map shows that German-speaking countries are in the same time zone, but all European countries

do not share the same time zone. Central Europe is six hours ahead of U.S. Eastern Standard Time (e.g. New
York), while Portugal and Great Britain are five. Greece is seven hours ahead, and Russia is eight hours ahead.
Using the time zone map below and a map of European cities, write sentences which express the times for the
following places:
Your town
Berlin, Germany
London, England
Athens, Greece
Moscow, Russia
For example, "It is 9 o'clock in morning in New York. It is 4 o'clock in the afternoon in Berlin, Germany." Now
you should do this for your hometown and the other locations using a complete German sentence.
This is a map of the European time zones.
Note: Your sentences should be written in German.

Sure! Here are sentences expressing the times for your hometown (I'll use "Meine Stadt" as a placeholder), Berlin, London, Athens, and Moscow in German. Please adjust "Meine Stadt" to the name of your specific town.

  1. Es ist 3 Uhr nachmittags in meiner Stadt. Es ist 9 Uhr abends in Berlin, Deutschland.
  2. Es ist 3 Uhr nachmittags in meiner Stadt. Es ist 8 Uhr abends in London, England.
  3. Es ist 3 Uhr nachmittags in meiner Stadt. Es ist 10 Uhr abends in Athen, Griechenland.
  4. Es ist 3 Uhr nachmittags in meiner Stadt. Es ist 11 Uhr abends in Moskau, Russland.

Feel free to replace "meine Stadt" with the actual name of your town and adjust the times accordingly!

nachmittags what does that mean in english

The German word "nachmittags" translates to "in the afternoon" in English. It can refer to the time period typically from around noon until the early evening.
