Minimum and maximum can also be used as adjectives. Minimal/minimum are very similar but the easiest way to think of them is: minimal = just enough or very little minimum = least possible Maximal/Maximum can be treated the same way.

Minimal and maximal are adjectives, and minimum and maximum - nouns.
