Examples

, .

Wait one minute, please.

.

The journey lasted twenty minutes.

.

After a few minutes he came back.

.

Every minute is important now.

.

She will come in ten minutes.

English speakers reach for and produce something nobody says. Keep for the measured unit and for the vague one - is a request, is nearly a stopwatch.
