- DoctorOetker 4y agoI don't see the relevance of your comment, would you mind explaining?
- peterfirefly 4y agoIt's "19th century" in English. Many (all?) Romance languages + a few of the other ones in Europe use Roman numerals for centuries.
- nine_k 4y agoI think it's styled "XIX" and not "19" to make it look archaic.
- int_19h 4y agoIn those languages it is used in all contexts and for all centuries. It's just a formatting convention that is occasionally helpful in e.g. history textbooks.
- simiones 4y agoIt's also common to write XXI century, it's not meant to look archaic. It is only a textual convention for centuries.
- JPLeRouzic 4y agoThanks, English is not my native language, today I learned something!
- peterfirefly 4y agoIt seems almost nobody caught that "Some help for you, citizen" is more or less a quote form the sketch you linked to -- and not an expression of condescension towards the, likely French, person who wrote "XIX".
