--description--

When talking about the duration of time something requires, you use the word take. For example, you can say, It takes me 10 minutes to get to the subway.

When expressing opinions about time, phrases like too long or not too long are used. Too long suggests that the time is more than what is preferred, while not too long suggests that the time is just right or reasonable.
