Walcom tae the video oan 'Baseec Subtraction'. Lat's think aneat some 'Baseec Addeetion' first. Gif Ah said '4 plus 3'(4 + 3), whit wid this mean? Whit dis that make? Weel, thaur's 2-3 waas that we coud hae seen this. We coud hae said, "Ah had 4 o sommit". Lat's say that Ah had 4 circles, or Ah had 4 lemons fer breakfast. Sae, 1, 2, 3, 4 lemons fer breakfast. N lat's say that Ah had anither 3 lemons fer lunch. 1, 2, 3. N sae ye coud see 4 + 3 aes "Hou monie lemons hae Ah aw up?" Ah'm eikin 3 tae 4. Sae hou monie hae Ah aw up? Weel, it's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. Sae Ah hae 7 lemons aw up. Anither wa that we can see this is we can draw oor 'nummer line'. N Ah'l draw it in yelloch cause we'r - Weel, thon's no wide enouch. Ah'l darw it in yelloch, cause we'r taukin aneat lemons. Sae lat's say that that's oor nummer line. N gif Ah stert at the nummer - Lat me draw aw o the nummers. 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. Sae ye coud think o this aes sayin, Weel, we'r oan the nummer line. We stert at the nummer 4, Aye? (thon's 4) N we'r eikin 3 tae it. Sae we'l increase alang the nummer line bi 3. Sae we'l gae 1, 2, 3 - n ye get tae 7. Sae ye can say, "Gif Ah hae 4, n ah get 3 mair, than ah get 7". Or, "Gif Ah increase 4 bi 3, than Ah get 7 n aw". Sae whit's 'subtraction' the nou? (Cause thon's whit this video's aneat.) Ah shidna wast oor time talkin aneat addition. Sae lat's tak the exaumple o 4 minus 3 (4 -3). Whit's this the sam aes? Lat me chynge colours, juist tae keep things interesting. Sae whit's 4 - 3? Subtraction -or 'minus' - is the oposite o addeetion. Sae in addeetion, ye'r dae sommit mair. Ye'r eikin. (Ah dinnae want tae use the word 'eikin' fer tae define 'addeetion' - bit thon's whit ye'r daein.) Ah haed 4 lemons, an than ah haed 3 mair. In 'subtraction', ye'r takin thaim awa. Sae in this exaumple, gif Ah stertit wi 4 lemons - Lat's say that Ah haed 4 lemons oan a plate. Gif Ah'm subtractin 3 - Gif Ah'm sayin minus 3,
