peer agreement (net): +4do the calculation on paper (literally: use the column method) Explanation: I think the best way to translate this would be: "do it on paper / manually, do the calculation / do the adding-up manually", as opposed to using the computer, which the speaker doesn't seem to like. Technically, сложение в столбик - это addition in a column / using column method. Below is a youtube video explaining the column method. Another thing I would add is that, although the person tells somebody to use the column method, they also ask to use the calculator. Reference: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfDibGraVf4 |
