Day Starts with A.M.

A recent survey asked the question, "Does Monday begin or end at 12:00AM on February 2?"

29 (97%) voted that the day begins at 12:00AM
1 (3%) voted that the day ends at 12:00AM

As explained previously, AM represents ante meridian; i.e., before the meridian (noon). So, if the time has A.M. associated with it, that's before noon, or what we can morning.

PM? Post meridian, or after the noon.

Many thanks to the readers who voted.
