I'm confused how that even works, given that digital clocks don't require any deciphering while analog clocks do.
I just know the time immediately at just a glance at an analogue clock. Digital can put me in a muddle sometimes, as I have that disorder where you lack basic (and challenging) math skills. Like say if it's 4:55 I still associate it with 4 even though it's nearly an hour past 4, so I have to picture an analogue clock to work it out, which takes a bit longer (well, just a second or two longer) than when reading an analogue clock.
The 24-hour digital clock throws me the most. Obviously I know how to read all clocks but the 24-hour one requires me to have to do math, after 1pm. And I hate doing math.
I am so bad at math, that when I have taken the time to learn how a type of math works I just about understand it and then it's gone again.
The underlined I think might be common, it's the same reason stores make things 4.99 instead of 5.00.
