Today, the numbers can be written with the [[Arabic numerals|Arabic numbers]] as well as with [[Roman numerals]]. The numbers 1, 2 and 3 and every whole hundred from 200 to 900 are declined as nouns and adjectives, with some differences. {| class="wikitable" |- | {{lang|la|ūnus, ūna, ūnum}} (masculine, feminine, neuter) | I | one |- | {{lang|la|duo, duae, duo}} (m., f., n.) | II | two |- | {{lang|la|trēs, tria}} (m./f., n.) | III | three |- | {{lang|la|quattuor}} | IIII <small>or</small> IV | four |- | {{lang|la|quīnque}} | V | five |- | {{lang|la|sex}} | VI | six |- | {{lang|la|septem}} | VII | seven |- | {{lang|la|octō}} | IIX <small>or</small> VIII | eight |- | {{lang|la|novem}} | VIIII <small>or</small> IX | nine |- | {{lang|la|decem}} | X | ten |- | {{lang|la|quīnquāgintā}} | L | fifty |- | {{lang|la|centum}} | C | one hundred |- | {{lang|la|quīngentī, quīngentae, quīngenta}} (m., f., n.) | D | five hundred |- | {{lang|la|mīlle}} | M | one thousand |} The numbers from 4 to 100 do not change their endings. As in modern descendants such as Spanish, the gender for naming a number in isolation is masculine, so that "1, 2, 3" is counted as {{lang|la|ūnus, duo, trēs}}.
