Common mistakes
Wrong: MMMDCCCLXXXXIV
Why isn't 3894 written as MMMDCCCLXXXXIV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 90 is XC (100 − 10), not LXXXX, so 3894 is MMMDCCCXCIV.
Wrong: MMMDCCCXCIIII
Why isn't 3894 written as MMMDCCCXCIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 3894 is MMMDCCCXCIV.
Wrong: MMMDCCCLXXXXIIII
Why isn't 3894 written as MMMDCCCLXXXXIIII?
No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so LXXXX and IIII are not used: 90 = XC, 4 = IV. Together they make MMMDCCCXCIV.
