• The minute hand points at the 1, and every number on a clock face is worth five minutes — so it shows 5 minutes past four.
• The hour hand is between the 4 and the 5, which tells you the hour has started but not finished.
• Up to half past we count minutes forward from the hour, so 4:05 is read as "five past four".
• 4:05 can be said either way: "five past four" or simply "four five".
