### Task: Provide the IUPAC Name for the Structure

Provide the IUPAC name for the structure shown below. 
(Note: rather than trying to enter Greek letters required in the name you can use "a" to represent α and "b" to represent β in your answer).

#### Structure Description:

The image displays a disaccharide composed of two monosaccharide units connected by an oxygen bridge (glycosidic bond). Both sugar rings are hexoses appearing in a six-sided ring (pyranose form).

- **Left Sugar Unit:**
  - It contains hydroxyl (OH) groups attached to the carbon atoms.
  - One hydroxyl group is attached below the plane, and one hydroxyl group is above. 
  - It includes a CH₂OH group extending above the ring.

- **Right Sugar Unit:**
  - This unit is also in a pyranose form.
  - Similar to the left structure, hydroxyl groups are attached at different orientations (one below and one above the plane).
  - It also has a CH₂OH group extending above the ring.

### Diagram Explanation:

- The structure has a glycosidic bond connecting the two units.
- The bond links the first carbon of the left sugar unit to the fourth carbon of the right sugar unit (characteristic of a 1→4 linkage).
- Use the indicated system for Greek letters to specify the stereochemistry of the glycosidic linkage.

This visual representation helps in understanding the molecular connectivity and stereochemistry, essential for IUPAC nomenclature of disaccharides.
