How many turns is one minute?

[空.明]

Is it the standard dnd 10 turns = 1 min?

[Barden]

Should be 6 seconds per turn, so yes 10 per minute.

Are the terms 'turn' and 'round' interchangeable?

Not really. For example, a Rogue can only make 1 Sneak Attack on his turn but, if given another opportunity to attack before his next turn, which may the same or a different round, he can Sneak Attack again. Think of a round like in a boxing match where everyone acts in the same round but the slower (lower initiative) fighter may not have acted yet because it is not yet his turn.

In original AD&D a turn referred to a 10-minute span of time while adventuring. I guess that's been abandoned over the years.

In terms of time span, yes, since it's assumed all turns happen simultaneously. 6s either way.
