The esc_html_x function is very similar to the esc_html__ one, but has the addition of a comment section where context for the translator can be supplied. This is sometimes beneficial to use as the English language has words and phrases which can have different meanings dependent on context.

$str = esc_html_x('Minute', 'measure of time', 'plugin-text-domain');
$str = esc_html_x('Minute', 'extremely small', 'plugin-text-domain');
