Editing Roman numerals (section)

==== Other ====

* There are some examples of year numbers after 1000 written as two Roman numerals 1–99, e.g. 1613 as {{rn|XVIXIII}}, corresponding to the common reading "sixteen thirteen" of such year numbers in English, or 1519 as {{rn|X{{Overset|C|V}}XIX}} as in [[French language|French]] ''quinze-cent-dix-neuf'' (fifteen-hundred and nineteen), and similar readings in other languages.<ref name="gach1862">{{Cite journal |last=Gachard |first=M. |date=1862 |title=II.

* In some French texts from the 15th century and later, one finds constructions like {{rn|IIII<sup>XX</sup>XIX}} for 99, reflecting the French reading of that number as {{lang|fr|quatre-vingt-dix-neuf}} (four-score and nineteen).<ref name=gach1862/> Similarly, in some English documents one finds, for example, 77 written as "{{rn|iii<sup>xx</sup>xvii}}" (which could be read "three-score and seventeen").<ref name=salt1923>{{Cite book |last=Salter |first=Herbert Edward |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=dfNAAAAAYAAJ&q=iiixx |title=Registrum Annalium Collegii Mertonensis 1483–1521 |date=1923 |publisher=Oxford Historical Society |volume=76}} 544 pages.

* A medieval accounting text from 1301 renders numbers like 13,573 as "{{rn|{{sc|XIII. M. V. C. III. XX.
