诛仙仿官:AM、PM是上午和下午的英文缩写,请问它们的完整单词是什么?

This is incorrect:

AM:after midnight
PM:prior to midnight

It is:

AM: ante meridiem (before noon)
PM: post meridiem. (after noon)

These words come from Latin (拉丁语)

ante = prior to, before
post = after
meridiem = noon

note: 12 am = midnight, 12 pm = noon
However it is often better to use midnight or noon to be clear in this case.

In my high school English textbook it said that you could write 12 m for noon, however I have never seen it used.

楼上说的很对!根本不是after midnight 什么的!

after midnight (拉丁语ante meridiem)
prior to midnight (拉丁语post meridiem)

ante meridiem [拉]午前, 上午
下午;午后 (post meridiem)
