Hi, I’m quite new to learning Japanese and I’m having some confusion about the meaning of the 分 kanji.
One of the synonyms is “minute”. Does that mean “minute” as in a measurement of time or “minute(pronounced: my-noot )” as in very small?
thank you

The time measurement.
時 = hour
分 = minute
秒 = second

It’s minute as in time
I think of it as a part of a longer time.
