๐Ÿ” Dive Deeper - Rules for Writing Time Units

  • Units like second, minute, and hour begin with a lowercase letter.
  • The exception is at the start of a sentence.
  • Symbols (s, min, h) are also written in lowercase.
  • Symbols are always written in singular form.
  • No full stop is written after the symbol.
  • Always leave a space between the number and the unit (e.g., "5 s", not "5s").
  • Writing "sec" for second is incorrect.
  • Writing "hrs" for hour is incorrect.
