I'm a bit embarrassed to ask this but I am starting to study Oakeshott's typology. The one that I'm a bit confused about is how one would verbally say them. I'm assuming you just say the number that corresponds with the Roman numeral but I am not certain. I'd rather clear this up here than say it incorrectly infront of someone who knows their sh...stuff. Thanks!

Now I know. Thanks for the timely answer.

You're not the only one who ever wondered about that! For a while there I wondered if it was "Type Ex-Vee" or "Type Fifteen." I decided the latter by default but this is the first time I've been reasonable sure of that :-)

While we're at it, I've got a similar question. Is the I:33 manuscript pronouced I (like eye) or 1? I'm honestly glad I've never had a reason to talk about it in person because I have no idea what to call it.

Thanks

According to the Royal Armouries who own the manuscript and who gave it its catalogue name, the I is a roman numeral one, not the letter I.

So one thirty three.
