A friend has had "XIX. VI. MMX" tattooed on their shoulder, so as not to appear ignorant later on when I see her I'd like to at least say "ah yes, this is (what it is)' but what is the significance. Tried briefly online but I'm stumped so I've turned to you guys!

It's a date so presumably means something to them.

Just Googled it and it comes up at the top, so not sure how you attempted to look OP, it appears that:

"XIX" = day - 19

"VI" = month - June

"MMX" = year - 2010

So you are looking at 19th June 2010 or 19.06.2010.

Does she have a 9 year old?

It's her use by date.

It's 19th June 2010, just ask her what the significance of that date is, if not obvious. Frankly, having roman numerals tattooed could mean anything from the date of the birth of their child to the time they first caught a pokemon.

Take your pick

Though I suspect it's probably something more personal.

Take a photo and put her in the a bit council thread.

Then yourself for not knowing Roman numerals.

This is my guess. Or has been married about 9 years....

It's how many men she's had.

Only up until the date she had the tattoo.

Obviously a load more since then.

Bare in mind it could be something personal like the loss of a loved one, I’d go with ‘that’s nice, what’s the meaning’ or not mention it.

Since it is in plain view it means to project some sort of message, so I’d just ask what it means.

Maybe it's an ASCII code for some text encrypted in roman numerals.

O/T imagine telephone numbers as roman numerals! Simple keypad but great memory essential.

19th June 2010, a highly significant date in history. It's the date on which Hervé Villechaize would have been just over 67 years of age and when the Russian duo Lena Katina and Julia Volkova were celebrating one year since the release of their album "Waste Management"
