GENERAL INFO
Minutes is a plural feminine noun.
USAGE
It's typically used after a number to express duration: "Il reste cinq minutes." (There are five minutes left.)
TRAPS
Remember it's feminine plural, so adjectives agree: "deux bonnes minutes."
Don't add an article after a number: "vingt minutes" (not "vingt les minutes").
