Common mistakes
Wrong: MMMCCCCLXXIV
Why isn't 3474 written as MMMCCCCLXXIV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 3474 is MMMCDLXXIV.
Wrong: MMMCDLXXIIII
Why isn't 3474 written as MMMCDLXXIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 3474 is MMMCDLXXIV.
Wrong: MMMCCCCLXXIIII
Why isn't 3474 written as MMMCCCCLXXIIII?
No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so CCCC and IIII are not used: 400 = CD, 4 = IV. Together they make MMMCDLXXIV.
