I teach freestyle and staff notations in keyboard and guitar from absolute beginner to intermediate.

Poly means it can play multiple notes at once. Mono means it can only play one note at a time. Paraphonic means multiple notes at once through some shared components (e.g 1 filter). Unison is a feature of polyphonic synths where multiple voices sound at once in response to a single key being pressed.

What are major chords and minor chords in keyboard?
The difference between Major and Minor chords is use of the 3rd note. If we'll use the third note flat it will become a minor chord and will produce a soft sound and if we'll use the third note normal the chord will be major.

How many chords are there in keyboard. How much time will it typically take to pick up speed?
Your question itself is not correct. A chord is when 2 or more keys are pressed on the keyboard. A triad is a chord when the 1st, 3rd and 5th notes of a scale are played together. e.g if C,E & G keys are pressed together the C triad (chord) played.
