Common mistakes

Wrong: MMCCCCXXXIX

Why isn't 2439 written as MMCCCCXXXIX?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 2439 is MMCDXXXIX.

Wrong: MMCDXXXVIIII

Why isn't 2439 written as MMCDXXXVIIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 9 is IX (10 − 1), not VIIII, so 2439 is MMCDXXXIX.

Wrong: MMCCCCXXXVIIII

Why isn't 2439 written as MMCCCCXXXVIIII?

No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so CCCC and VIIII are not used: 400 = CD, 9 = IX. Together they make MMCDXXXIX.
