## What is Verbarius Clock?

Verbarius is a clock that tells time the way people do.

It spells time differently every minute. It’s either "forty-five minutes past four", or "fifteen minutes to five", or "four forty-five", or "a quarter to five".

Verbarius supports both portrait and landscape orientations. Put your iPhone/iPod touch in the cradle, or just plug the charger in, run Verbarius and leave it on your night stand.

Note: Please don't leave Verbarius running a long time while not on external power (USB or AC adapter). It will drain your battery eventually.

Hints:
  - tap the screen to see the time a little bit differently;
  - tap the "i" button and change the language to learn some French or Russian.

### 1/5 — Лучшие часы!

*2009-10-08, version 0*

На мой взгляд - это гениальные часы от Артемия Лебедева. Прекрасен и тот факт, что эти великолепные часы бесплатны. Насколько мне известно, на сайте дизайн.ру он продает такие часы, они настоящие и очень привлекательные, но цена у них полностью соответствует качеству. Осень рад, что идеи Темы дошли и до аппстора! Желаю его бюро ежедневных классных идей!

### 5/5 — Fun Time!!!

*2009-08-10, version 0*

I like it. It's a fun alternative to the standard iPhone and will add a little more flavor to my all day sleeping before work sessions. The various ways of time telling are an added plus. 

The ultimate app for clock slang afficiandos.

Creative app, try or die!!!
