For those wondering, it’s Ante Meridiem and Post Meridiem. It’s Latin.

It's After Midnight. Of course.

In grade school I had the worst time remembering which was which, so I used to tell myself After Midnight and Pre Midnight lol. I absolutely knew it was Latin for something, but could never remember it for the life of me.
