Condensation or dehydration bond reaction forming a glycosidic bond. A -H from one sugar reacts with an -OH from the second sugar forming the bond and releasing one H2O molecule.
Note the bonds do not have to be 1-4,eg. in sucrose the glucose is joined 1-2 to a fructose. In maltose the bond 1-4 between two glucoses.
Disaccharide
When two to ten monosaccaharides are joined together they are called as oligosaccharides ,and polymer of hundred to thousand monosaccharide joined they are called as polysaccharide.
Mono = one Di = two That simple.
Monosaccharides are single sugar molecules. Disaccharides are two sugar molecules joined together. Polysaccharides are saccharide polymers (chains of monosaccharides).
Disaccharide, or double sugar, is the sugar that forms between two monosaccharide's. Examples of monosaccharide's include: glucose, fructose, and galactose.
A disaccharide is formed when two monosaccharides are joined together by a reaction known as a dehydration, or condensation, synthesis. In this type of reaction water is removed, thus the name "dehydration". A new molecule is formed or "synthesized" from the two previously separate ones.

Water is formed when monosaccharides are joined.

A disaccharide. An example of this would be sucrose, common table sugar.
a disaccharide is two monosaccharides. and a polysaccharide is a long chain of monosaccharides joined together. they are units of carbohydrates.

Monosaccharides are joined together
Chains of monosaccharides are called polysaccharides.
See the link below for the formula of maltose
Two monosaccharides may bond to form a disaccharide. Many monosaccharides may bond together to form polysaccharides.
