The empire brought the Aramaic script with it. Both X and y are derived from this. The more literary way of saying this is - both x and y derive from this.-
A similar example: Both India’s uniqueness and strength -are derived - from its cultural diversity and unity (or) Both India’s uniqueness and strength - derive - from its cultural diversity and unity.
You have to use the plural verb – derive - because the subject is –both the northern and southern Indian alphabets- a compound and plural one. Expressions such as - was derived, derives and driving - are all wrong
C is the correct answer.
