Afternoon is the time of day from 12:00 (noon) to — depending upon context — evening, sunset, or 18:00. Its use is often quite subjective.
The term should not be confused with "after noon" (two separate words), which is a translation of the Latin "post meridiem" (p.m.) as used in the 12-hour clock, meaning a time of day from noon to midnight.
In Australia and New Zealand, the word "arvo" is a slang term for afternoon.
