MySQL interprets them as @code{'00:11:12'} (11 minutes, 12 seconds). MySQL interprets them as @code{'00:11:12'} (11 minutes, 12 seconds).

@code{TIME} values with semicolon, instead, are always treated as @code{TIME} values with colons, by contrast, are always treated as
time of the day. That is @code{'11:12'} will mean @code{'11:12:00'}, time of the day. That is @code{'11:12'} will mean @code{'11:12:00'},
