Common mistakes
Wrong: MMDCCLXXXXIV
Why isn't 2794 written as MMDCCLXXXXIV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 90 is XC (100 − 10), not LXXXX, so 2794 is MMDCCXCIV.
Wrong: MMDCCXCIIII
Why isn't 2794 written as MMDCCXCIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 2794 is MMDCCXCIV.
Wrong: MMDCCLXXXXIIII
Why isn't 2794 written as MMDCCLXXXXIIII?
No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so LXXXX and IIII are not used: 90 = XC, 4 = IV. Together they make MMDCCXCIV.
