点 (diǎn) is used to indicate a specific time on a clock. It is usually used in combination with a number, such as 三点 (sān diǎn) meaning "three o'clock". It can also be used with 分 (fēn) to indicate a specific time, such as 三点十五分 (sān diǎn shíwǔ fēn) meaning "three fifteen".

In Chinese, the word 点 (diǎn) has several meanings, one of which is "o'clock." It is used to indicate the hour when telling time, for example, "三点" (sān diǎn) means "three o'clock." The emphasis here is on the specific time of day.
On the other hand, 句 (jù) generally means "sentence" or "phrase." It is often used in linguistic contexts to refer to a complete thought expressed in words. While it does not relate to time, it is essential for discussing language structure and grammar.
In summary, 点 (diǎn) is used for telling time, specifically to denote the hour, while 句 (jù) pertains to language and writing, referring to sentences or phrases. Their usage contexts are quite different.
