1) Any 1:00 time is considered singular, and you must start your sentence with

 “Es la una.”

Any 2:00-12:00 time is considered plural, and you must start your sentence with

“Son las dos.”

 2) Use ‘y’ + minutes for the number of minutes after the hour.

1:05    Es la una y cinco. (Do not say ‘cero” for zero)

2:10:   Son las dos y diez.

  3) Use ‘menos’ + minutes for the number of minutes before the hour.

12:50   Es la una menos diez.

1:50     Son las dos menos diez.

4) Use ‘cuarto’ for quarter past and ‘media’ for half past.

1:15    Es la una y cuarto.

2:30    Son las dos y media.

5) When you are talking about when something will happen, use “a la una/a las dos”
