Common mistakes

Wrong: MLM

Why not MLM?

It subtracts across places, which isn't allowed: only I, X and C subtract, and only from the next two symbols up. Write each place on its own: MCML.

Wrong: MDCCCCL

Why not MDCCCCL?

A symbol repeats at most three times in a row. The standard form uses subtraction: MCML.
