What does son las doce y catorce mean?

"Son las doce y catorce" is an incorrect way to tell time in Spanish.

Here's why:

* "Son las doce" means "It's twelve o'clock."

* "Catorce" means "fourteen".

To say "It's twelve fourteen" in Spanish, you would say: "Son las doce y catorce" (pronounced "sohn lahs doh-thay ee kah-tor-thay").

Important Note: In Spanish, we use "y" (and) when telling time after the hour.

So, the correct phrase is "Son las doce y catorce".
