What is 1940 in regular time?

7:40 PM. For hours from 1200 onward you subtract twelve: 19 minus 12 gives 7, so 1940 is 7:40 PM. Military time never uses a colon and never uses AM or PM, because the hour alone says which half of the day you mean.

How do you say 1940?

"nineteen forty". Minutes are read as a number after the hour, with no "hundred" and no "oh" before a two digit value.
