• The minute hand points at the 5, and every number on a clock face is worth five minutes — so it shows 25 minutes past twelve.
• The hour hand is between the 12 and the 1, which tells you the hour has started but not finished.
• Up to half past we count minutes forward from the hour, so 12:25 is read as "twenty-five past twelve".
• 12:25 can be said either way: "twenty-five past twelve" or simply "twelve twenty-five".
