About these units

Minute (min)

Metric (SI)Current unit

60 seconds. Defined as one sixtieth of an hour.

Minute means small, not short. It comes from the Latin pars minuta prima, the first small part, produced when sixty-based division was applied to the hour. Al-Biruni is credited with dividing the hour into minutes, seconds, thirds and fourths around the year 1000, and Roger Bacon used the same scheme in 1267. For everyday life the minute needed hardware: Jost Bürgi is said to have made the first clock with a minute hand, for Tycho Brahe in 1577, and watches got minute hands only after Thomas Tompion's hairspring of 1675 made them accurate enough.

A minute is 60 seconds, exactly 1/60 of an hour, and the BIPM's SI Brochure is the reference for its symbol, min. Civil timekeeping can bend the rule: because of leap seconds, a UTC minute occasionally holds 61 seconds. A negative leap second would produce a 59-second minute, but that has never happened in more than 40 years. People use the minute for cooking, lectures and phone calls, and the same name serves for the arcminute, which is a sixtieth of a degree.

1 minute = 60 seconds (exactly).

Score (score)

Imperial (British)Traditional unit (still used in some regions)

Twenty years. Familiar from 'four score and seven years ago' (87 years) in the Gettysburg Address.

Score meant a notch cut on a tally stick. The word is related to Old Norse skor, and because people often counted in twenties, every twentieth notch was cut larger, so the word came to mean twenty. As a unit of time, a score of years is 20 years, about 631 million seconds on the Gregorian calendar.

The best known use is the opening of the Gettysburg Address, delivered on 19 November 1863, where Lincoln spoke of four score and seven years ago. That is 87 years, which counted back from 1863 reaches 1776 and the Declaration of Independence. Wikipedia notes that the word also appears loosely as scores of, meaning a large unspecified number. A score is two decades, and five scores make a century.

1 score = 631,139,040 seconds (exactly).
