Roman numerals
| X=xten
| "I" refers to one unit of finger
"X" refers to two hands
| Similarly, V is five fingers (shape made with the thumb and the forefinger)
| X = crossed penises (not touching because romans weren't gay unlike GAYreeks)
| Then why 4 is IV? Doesn't make sense, and IIII is considered rude mistake.
| IIII are too many I and it’s easyer to think “oh it’s just five minus one okay” than being there to count them

| What does the X and I stands for in their numeral system?
I do not mean the number, I mean the name.
Since
M = Millennium
C = Century
