yes, is there any country in which they don't teach them?

I can't remember if they taught in elementary school but they definitely teach it by jr high.

We have to do "outlines" which go like this.

I.
A.
1.
a.

Oof. Its not like its hard, the biggest "hard" part is remembering that Romans were retarded and thought IV made more sense than IIII. Except no, actually ancient Romans really did go IIII but modern day users prefer IV because we are even more retard than the ancients were.

Here.

>implying you can understand the complicated numerals
Wow, you guys are smart.

>outlines
what the fuck is that
>actually ancient Romans really did go IIII but modern day users prefer IV because we are even more retard than the ancients were.
this is not true.

>implying Japanese don't also learn Roman numerals
Just because they hire retards to teach English doesn't mean they don't know Roman numerals themselves.

It is true at least some of the time.

>Inscriptions dating from the Roman period not infrequently use "additive" forms such as IIII and VIIII for "4" and "9" instead of IV and IX. There are even instances of both forms appearing within the same document or inscription. On the numbered gates to the colosseum, for instance, IV seems to have been systematically avoided in favour of IIII, although other "subtractives", such as IX and XL are used.

>what the fuck is that
Its how American kids take notes in highschool/jr high. At least back in my day (00s).

that's my point, it's like mongoloids saying "would of, could of, should of" etc.
it happens, it's not right, they're just uneducated.
it was IV, and that's it.
