In parts of Europe and in India, the hyphen is used to delineate parts within a written date. Germans and Slavs also used Roman numerals for the month; "14‑VII‑1789" (14 July 1789), for example, is one way of writing the first Bastille Day, though this usage is rapidly falling out of favour. Plaques on the wall of the Moscow Kremlin are written this way. Use of hyphens, as opposed to the slashes used in the English language, is specified for international standards.
