Che ore sono?

What time is it?

essere, presente

sono le (08:30)

it is (8:30 a.m.)

Before l'una (one o'clock) or terms like mezzogiorno (midday) and mezzanotte (midnight), we use the singular è (is) rather than the plural sono (are).

È l'01:15 (una e un quarto).

It is 1:15 a.m. (quarter past one).
