MMDXCIV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MM (2000) + D (500) + XC (90) + IV (4) = 2594.
XC and IV are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMDLXXXXIV
Why isn't 2594 written as MMDLXXXXIV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 90 is XC (100 − 10), not LXXXX, so 2594 is MMDXCIV.
Wrong: MMDXCIIII
Why isn't 2594 written as MMDXCIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 2594 is MMDXCIV.
Wrong: MMDLXXXXIIII
Why isn't 2594 written as MMDLXXXXIIII?
No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so LXXXX and IIII are not used: 90 = XC, 4 = IV. Together they make MMDXCIV.
