Is time a human realized concept or a human created concept? Is it neither? Is it both?

Time is an effect. It's always measured in terms of something else.

Time is the fourth dimension. It exists in a world that is 3 dimensional
(everything has a height, length and depth). These concepts would exist
without Human thinking, however they could be realised in a different way.

Without time, the flower wouldn't blossum, nothing would age, evolve or be
created. This would be stuck, in something similar to a photograph.

So yes Time would exist woithout humans, its just humans that harnessed the
power to manage and define it.

i think it would have already been created because you have all the times when the sun is around the globe... human civilization i guess just made something like the sun dial and were all " WE'RE GENIOUS'S!" lol.. but now everything is digital so they lost that.

Time had always been around i think its the only thing in the universe that wouldnt have a beginning or an end, as oldways said we just found out how to measure it.

well...time is a physical thing. Special relativity>>time dilation! A moving clock travels slower than a stationary one! (put a clock on a mountain and IT DOES travel slower than one at sea level!)
A clock is anything that keeps period ie-anything that repeats itself at a steady rate.
But, as humans time slows down as well!!! Right before a car crash time seems to slow down. It doesn't actually slow down, just we become hyper-alert!
answer to ur ques>>> ITS something humans found out as in idea of clocks and only when everything stops moving (absolute zero!) does time stop...
that answer his ques>

it takes 365days to orbit the sun, hence the year.
a month is a unit of time corresponding approximately to one cycle of the moon's phases.
a week is, in many regions a four-day to eight-day market week is based on the recurrence of market days
a day is The 24-hour period during which the earth completes one rotation on its axis.
an hour is One of the 24 equal parts of a day.
a minute is a unit of time equal to one sixtieth of an hour, or 60 seconds.
a second is A unit of time equal to one sixtieth of a minute.
a milisecond is One thousandth (10-3) of a second.

as you can see it is both.
