• The minute hand points at the 1, and every number on a clock face is worth five minutes — so it shows 5 minutes past two.
• The hour hand is between the 2 and the 3, which tells you the hour has started but not finished.
• Up to half past we count minutes forward from the hour, so 2:05 is read as "five past two".
• 2:05 can be said either way: "five past two" or simply "two five".
