Czech

Phrase

čtvrt na

1. quarter past

   čtvrt na pět‎

   quarter past four

Usage notes

Unlike in English, where the phrase quarter past is followed by the number referring to the previous hour, the Czech phrase čtvrt na is followed by the number referring to the next hour. Thus quarter past four is translated into Czech as čtvrt na pět, where the word pět means five.
