Four cubes, and one important subtraction 🧙
Four D6s are familiar from character-generation procedures, but the phrase after the dice expression matters. A plain 4d6 roll adds everything. A drop-lowest rule asks you to inspect the four faces before keeping only three.

The difference between fifteen and fourteen
In this example the four cubes show 6, 5, 3, and 1. Their raw total is 15. If your procedure says to drop the lowest, remove the 1 and keep 6+5+3 = 14. These are two valid calculations for two different instructions.
Raw sum6 + 5 + 3 + 1 = 15
