1573:, the Roman numeral "I" in C major can signify a major chord, a minor chord, a seventh chord, or indeed many combinations of notes controlled by the root C. The same Roman numeral can also represent the governing harmonic function of an extended passage embracing several or many chords. In this system, therefore, one basic sign applies to all manifestations of a structural harmony, with figured-bass numerals and other symbols indicating inversions and deviations from the basic type. ... Roman numerals can be used less to indicate local detail and more broadly, and analytically, to denote harmonic function in either the major or the minor mode.

In some fake books and lead sheets, all triads may be represented by upper case numerals, followed by a symbol to indicate if it is not a major chord (e.g. "m" for minor or "" for half-diminished or "7" for a seventh chord). An upper case numeral that is not followed by a symbol is understood as a major chord. The use of Roman numerals enables the

In the United

Using the V7 or V chord (V dominant 7, or V major) is typical of most jazz and pop music regardless of whether the key is major or minor. Though the V chord is not diatonic to a minor scale, using it in a minor key is not usually considered "borrowing," given its prevalence in these styles.
