That's an easy enough conversion, even for Emma. But for the sake of acclimatizing Holly and Crystal, she uses both in conversation, to get them used to hours.
She fetches them both sandwiches for lunch, and vanishes for a couple of hours ("one sand and a little") to practice her Malinquan with her tutor. Her father has recently started to expand his holdings out of Soche-Tas into Malinqua, and as his backup (but perfectly trustworthy) translator, Emma's studies have altered accordingly.
But Emma does well in her tutoring session- she's not even behind in her studies thanks to Holly and Crystal, not really. They've taken up lots of her time, it's true, but it's time they woke her up for when she would otherwise have been sleeping. No loss to her.
And upon her mother's return home, permission for a "shopping expedition" is obtained. Once Alli and Jenny arrive, they can start looking for Book.
