Capital or small capital Roman numerals are widely used in Romance languages to denote , e.g. the French ' On composera en chiffres romains petites capitales les nombres concernant : ↲ 1. Les siècles. and the Spanish (not ) for "18th century". Some Slavic and Turkic languages (especially in and adjacent to Russia) similarly favour Roman numerals (e.g. Russian , Azeri or Polish ). On the other hand, in Turkish and some Central European Slavic languages, like most Germanic languages, one writes "18." (with a period) before the local word for "century" (e.g. Turkish , Czech ).
