what is mean: i didn't take long for the children...?

[Nola]

Hi Neven,
(to take long) or (to take too long) means (to take long time)
Also when you say (Don't take too long.) means (Don't take a long time.) or (Don't be late.)
Hope this leave you well.

Regards,
Nola

Could you please expline me
Is the Word "Children" flural?

[Torsten]

Children is plural, not 'flural'. Also, the word 'exline' does not exist. Your sentence should read 'Could you please tell me' or 'Could you please explain to me...'
