I will mention or discuss all of these: - Swahili Time - 12 and 24 hour clocks - Italian and Thai six hour clocks - temporal hours - traditional Chinese time units - Nāhua hours and cycle direction - Hindustani time units - Japanese 30 hour days - natural standards ~ Credits ~ Art, narration and animation by Josh from NativLang.
