It's Polish and it goes like this:
1 minuta
2-4 minuty
5-21 minut
22-24 minuty
25-31 minut

25-31 minut
...
I think that your idea is good. There are only three cases in this case for
Polish.
"%n minute(s)" is in general not a good solution because in Polish you make
plural forms not by appending a single letter like in English but by replacing
letters.
Thank you all for interest in fixing this bug.
