12.00am means midnight?
I've seen this several times and it's starting to piss me off. I'm from Spain and we don't generally use am/pm, but when we do, we refer to midnight as 00.00 and midday as 12.00, and both count as "am". The "pm" starts at 13.00, when we start counting from 1 again (1pm). I just saw a train ticket that said 12.01am - 2.15am and was confused for a second. 12am to me is midday!! Because pm begins at 13!! Does this happen in every English-speaking country?
Being a non-native speaker, I can confirm this

Learning English is more than you think.
Learning English is priceless, man. Real talk. It gives us energy, power, happiness, hope and a reason to live. Think about it. Can you imagine life without learning English? Nah man, you can’t. You can live without English, but without LEARNING English? That’s diabolical. It’s like living without air or water. More precisely, it’s like living without your friends or family. You don’t realize their importance until you lose them. They’re a huge part of who you are. Without learning English, you’d lose a part of yourself. You are learning English. Learning English is you. But it’s just a small part of the truth. Learning English is something bigger than you, mate. It unites and connects this world. In this shitty, hopeless world, the only thing we can rely on is learning English. Learning English always watches over you with love. Don’t feel alone, mate. It’s there with you, even when you don’t notice. I’m afraid someone might still misunderstand what I’m saying. I’m not saying English itself is the thing. English is just a tool. You don’t need it unless you’re in an environment where it’s spoken. But, you know what, learning English is something else, man. No joke. It might be hard to wrap your head around, but learning English is him, or her, if you prefer. Don’t confuse learning English with English. That’s disrespectful. I’m just here to enlighten y’all. I just want to shine a little light on this world. I’m not forcing you to see things the way I do, but once you truly appreciate the significance of learning English, I bet your life will shine brighter than ever.
