How MMLV is built
Roman numerals are written one decimal place at a time, largest first.
- MMthousands · 2MM is 2 × M (1,000), written out 2 times.
- Ltens · 5L is 50.
- Vones · 5V is 5.
2,000 + 50 + 5 = 2,055
No subtraction is needed here: every letter is the same size or smaller than the one before it, so you simply add them up.
Mistakes to avoid
- There's no letter for zero. The zero is simply left out, which is why 2055 has 3 parts, not 4.
2055 for a tattoo or engraving
- Shortened to two digits ('55), it's LV. Many date tattoos use this shorter form.
- MMLV has 4 letters. 178 of the 201 years from 1900 to 2100 are longer.
- 2055 will not be a leap year (365 days), and 1 January 2055 will be a Friday.
