Question at position 10: The Khitan written language was based on the Uyghur alphabet
Options: ["True", "False"]

Option 1: True. This statement claims that the Khitan writing system originated from or was built upon the Uyghur alphabet. Historically, this is not accurate. The Khitan scripts—both the large script and the small script—were developed by the Khitan people independently in the 10th–12th centuries and are not considered to be derived from the Old Uyghur alphabet. Therefore, labeling this statement as true would misattribute the origin of Khitan writing to Uyghur influence.

Option 2: False. This is the correct assessment of the historical record. The Khitan scripts were distinct inventions of the Khitan states rather than derivations of the Uyghur alphabet. While there were broad interactions among peoples in the region and some exchange of writing ideas, the scholarly consensus is that Khitan writing did not derive from the Uyghur script. Instead, Khitan scripts show unique features and were used for official and inscriptional purposes by the Khitan/Liao state, separate from the Old Uyghur writing system.

Note on potential misconceptions: Some learners might think all East Asian or Central Asian writing systems in that era were directly borrowed from one another. However, the case of Khitan scripts is a clear example where a civilization developed its own writing system rather than adopting the neighboring Uyghur alphabet. Also, be careful not to conflate the Uyghur script’s later development with the Khitan scripts’ origins, as they belong to different lineages and historical timelines.
