Question: How do you write this year in Roman numerals?
The year is 2013. How do you write this year in Roman numerals?
Answer: This year in Roman numerals is MMXIII. Each M stands for 1000; X stands for 10; each I stands for a single digit. Roman numerals are added together.

M+M =2000 X=10 I+I+I=3; MM+X+II = 2000+10+3= 2013. 2014 will be MMXIV or MMXIIII (although writing 4 as IIII instead of IV is frowned upon today).
