I do not understand why a 10 minutes de is wrong, and a 10 mins de is right. I have not yet seen the latter given as an example.

Hi Virginia,

Did you write a or à? Perhaps this is the simple explanation? Otherwise, suggest you file an error report.

Hi Virginia,

Which Kwiz question are you referring to so that I can check that both 'minutes' and the abbreviation 'mins' are accepted ?
