Be careful not to mistype minster for minister (or vice versa). This is an easy mistake to make, but it can be hard to spot.
- A minister is either a person appointed to be head of a government department (e.g., to be Minister of Education or Foreign Minister) or a member of the clergy in certain Non-conformist denominations of the Christian Church (e.g., in the Presbyterian Church or the Methodist Church).
- The word minster is applied to any of a small group of English cathedrals or large churches which were originally connected with monasteries. For further details see cathedral - minster.
