语法笔记里说答案是C, 但是这里为何derive不用被动呢?

C is correct

derive (from), both... determines the form of "derive"

為什麼不是d呢?

Derive要跟著誰的變化? 不是script 嗎?
script不是單數嗎? 用Derives不對嗎?

Thanks !

本来应该是意思是:
the Aramaic script, which both the northern and the southern Indian alphabets derive
                            from.

(那个北方及南方字母源于的the Aramaic script)

这样derive算是倒装吗??

From 放到which前面我可以理解

那derive放到both前面算是倒装吗?? 一定要这样用法吗?

Derive不能放在后面吗?

(我发现我不懂这语法
        所以不知道 derive
        的主语是both the northern and the southern….)

谢谢!!

From which 这种句子一定要用倒装吗
                derive不能直接放在后面吗?

怎么判断它是倒装后的结果呢?

做题时我会误以为那个derive的主格是the Aramaic script说…

是要用文意判断吗?

谢谢lz..

derive应该是倒装吧，可以看这个例子

The Achaemenid empire of Persia reached the Indus Valley in the fifth century B.C., bringing with it the Aramaic script, from which derive both the northern and the southern India alphabets.

這樣是不是有run-on(reached跟derive) sentense問題?!
