rdfs:comment | The Khitan language (also known as Liao, Kitan [ISO 639-3]; Chinese: 契丹語 Qìdān Yǔ) is a now-extinct language once spoken by the Khitan people (388–1243AD). Khitan is generally deemed to be genetically linked to the Mongolic languages. It was written using two mutually exclusive writing systems known as the Khitan large script and the Khitan small script. The language was the official language of the Liao Dynasty (907–1125) and Kara-Khitan Khanate (1124–1218). Janhunen states "A better term for Khitan than Mongolic would be Para-Mongolic, implying that it was probably a language collateral to the ancestor of all the Mongolic languages." Presently the theory of the Mongolic, rather than Tungusic, affiliation of Khitan is more and more commonly accepted by both eastern and western scholars. See List of the Khitan rulers.

rdfs:comment | The extinct language of the Kitan or Khitan dynasty, who at one time ruled much of Mongolia, Manchuria and northern China. They are called Liao in Chinese sources. The Kitan used two distinct scripts. One, called the "large script" is largely logographic, and contains many signs drawn from Chinese. The second one, called the "small script", was reputedly created by the Khitan scholar Diela around 925 CE with inspiration from the Uyghur alphabet. It is a mixture of logograms, syllabic and even alphabetical signs. 916 - 1125 AD. ('en' language string) |
