@iseeallstars Thank you for the correction. Does this “a few minutes” mean a short period? It doesn’t mean 2 to 3 minutes?

@Yu456 it can mean either, it's a general statement
if the person you are talking wants to know an exact time frame, they will ask. but saying "only a few minutes" is much more common and natural sounding.
