Common mistakes
Wrong: MCMXL1V
Is MCMXL1V the same as MCMXLIV?
No. MCMXL1V has the digit 1 where the letter I should be, so it isn't a Roman numeral. The year is MCMXLIV.
Wrong: MCMXLVI
Is MCMXLVI also 1944?
No. Swapping the last two letters turns a subtraction into an addition: MCMXLVI is 1946.
Wrong: MDCCCCXLIV
Why not MDCCCCXLIV?
A symbol repeats at most three times in a row. The standard form uses subtraction: MCMXLIV.
