I actually can't read them, and I literally do this sometimes when I'm in a situation with no access to digital clocks and need a rough estimate of how much time there is left, or how much time has already passed. I have no idea why or how I didn't learn it, I learned to read on my own when I was 5. I was just suddenly 10 years old and people were shocked to discover that someone my age couldn't read a clock face yet.

I understand not knowing exact minutes all that easily, but the hour litterally points to the hour. If the little one points to about 6, its about 6. In case it's a matter of switching the big and little hand, I think of it as a big gear goes fast and a small gear goes slow. Minutes go fast, hours go slow.

It's a very interesting thing. I can read analogue fine, but there are days when it's strangely enough more difficult than I'd think it could be. So it's possible for people who *can* read analogue to struggle with it some days. For me, it's particularly when I have to remember what the correct phrasing is, compared to saying "4:34". Maybe it's because most of how we reference and compare time nowadays are digital?
