I make use of AMAZON.Time slot in my skill. I received feedback from the certification team that I should confirm if a user meant AM or PM when specifying a twelve-hour time. There is one edge case that poses an annoying problem with this feedback.

Since all times are parsed as 24-hour format by the AMAZON.Time slot type, I have no way to know whether a user said, for example "five" or "five a.m." because both get parsed as "05:00". In other words, I lose information about whether the user already explicitly said "five a.m." or if they just said "five" when I attempt to confirm what they meant. So to be safe, I always have Alexa ask the user "did you mean five a.m. or p.m.?". It's only the AM case that causes the problem, because I know the user must have said "seven p.m." or "seventeen hundred" if I get "17:00" back for the slot value.

Can you please modify the way twelve hour time slots are parsed so it is clear if a user already specified "a.m." or not in their voice input for a twelve hour time?
