意味
Indicating a future time frame.
文化的背景
In Russian universities, an 'hour' (академический час) is 45 minutes. If a professor says 'через час', they might mean after the current lecture ends. Punctuality can be flexible in social settings. 'Через час' might mean 'sometime soon' rather than exactly 60 minutes, especially in informal gatherings. In big cities like Moscow, business punctuality is strict. 'Через час' in a contract or meeting request is taken literally. Russian Railways (РЖД) are famously punctual. If a train is 'через час', it will likely depart exactly on the 60th minute.
The 'In' Rule
Whenever you want to say 'in [time period]' for the future, 'через' is your best friend.
No 'V' for Future
Never use 'в' to mean 'in an hour'. It will always be interpreted as 'at one o'clock'.

よくある質問
10 問No, because 'час' is masculine inanimate and 'через' takes the Accusative case, which looks like the Nominative.
Yes, but you must change 'час' to 'часа' (через два часа).
It is neutral. You can use it with your boss or your best friend.
'Через час' is for the future or general sequences. 'Спустя час' is more formal and usually used in books to describe the past.
Use 'через полчаса'.
You can, but it sounds redundant. Just 'через час' is more natural.
No, it also means 'across' (через дорогу - across the road) and 'through' (через лес - through the forest).
Say 'примерно через час' or 'через час-полтора'.
In Russia, it depends on the context. In business, be on time. With friends, 10-15 minutes is usually okay.
Say 'через полтора часа'.
