I believe six-heures de l'après-midi should be a good option alongside dix-huit heures?

AM vs PM
This question relates to:French lesson "Telling time in French - 24-hour clock rules = AM vs PM"
Asked 3 years ago
Bonjour Martina,
Thank you for your comment! As mentioned in the lesson, 'de l'après-midi' is not used with the equivalent of 6 PM. From 6 PM onwards, you can say 'six heures du soir' (12 hour clock ; as the evening "starts" from 6 PM) or dix-huit heures (24 hour clock)
I hope this is helpful.
Bonne journée !
