If the bus schedule is as titled, how should I tell it to someone who has no idea about when the bus will come at the bus station? Thanks.
i can say: The bus come at six and five minutes, and then every half an hour.
I guess Nona's is the best! Bingo!

six thirty-five means 6:35
i don't get why u said past?
plz explain.
five past six = 6:05, forty-three past nine = 9:43 = seventeen minutes to ten
they are just different expressions for the same meaning.
