Kata paek kaanggen mawinan titik manawi nenten kawenten pantaraning zona galah; taler zona galah katentuang manut sakadi politis, kantos pusat miwah batasne sasai pisan nenten matongos saking meridian ring kalipatan 15˚.
The word near is used because the point might not be at the centre of the time zone; also the time zones are defined politically, so their centres and boundaries often do not lie on meridians at multiples of 15°.
