In this survey the reader will find what is currently known about the Kitan language and scripts. The language was very likely distantly related to Mongolian, with two quite different scripts in use. A few generations after their state was defeated, almost all trace of the Kitan spoken and written languages disappeared, except a few words in Chinese texts. Over the past few decades, however, inscriptions from the tombs of the Liao emperors and the Kitan aristocracy have been at least partially deciphered, resulting in a significant increase of our knowledge of the Kitan lexicon, morphology and syntax. 410 0$aHandbuch der Orientalistik.$nAchte Abteilung,$pHandbook of Uralic studies ;$vv. 19. 606 $aKhitan language 606 $aKhitan language$xWriting 606 $aKhitan language$xMorphology 606 $aKhitan language$xSyntax 607 $aChina$xHistory$yLiao dynasty, 947-1125 615 0$aKhitan language. 615 0$aKhitan language$xWriting. 615 0$aKhitan language$xMorphology. 615 0$aKhitan language$xSyntax. 676 $a411 700 $aKane$b Daniel$0922359 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778693603321 996 $aThe Kitan language and script$93844347 997 $aUNINA
