意思
A common question to ask for the current time.
文化背景
Germans often use the 24-hour clock for appointments. If someone says 'Es ist 15 Uhr', they mean 3 PM. In Switzerland, punctuality is even more strictly observed than in Germany. Asking the time is often a prelude to apologizing for being 30 seconds late. Austrians might use 'Wie viel Uhr haben wir?' more frequently than North Germans.
Use 'Entschuldigung'
Always start with 'Entschuldigung' if asking a stranger to be polite.
Uhr vs. Stunde
Never say 'Wie viel Stunde'. It's a dead giveaway that you're translating from English.
