Every hour on the hour

Question

Hi,

Into Persian please.

Comments

very nice +

thanks

Answer 1

The train leaves the station every hour on the hour

قطار هر یک ساعت به یک ساعت ایستگاه را ترک می کند

It seems it doesn't need to repeat the second part, because reader/listener can understand the meaning.

The alarm rings every 60 seconds.

هر 60 ثانیه یک بار زنگ می زند

Answer 2

I was referred to this question from this one :http://chimigan.com/27212/

So I explain same thing here:

Every hour on the hour means: Something happens frequently with intervals of one hour in between; but it also stress that it starts exactly at the minute 0 of each hour.

I just googled it and this popped out:

The expression "every hour on the hour" is more precise than "every hour".

The train for Leicester leaves every hour at 15 minutes past the hour. It leaves at 0:15, 1:15, etc.
The clock strikes every hour on the hour. It strikes at 0:00, 1:00, 2:00, etc.

from :http://forum.wordreference.com/showthread.php?t=1833164

So the best equivalent Persian I came up with is:

راس هر ساعت
