Alternative forms

  • -ыт (-yt), (-t)

Etymology

From Proto-Turkic *-t.

Suffix

-іт • (-ıt)

  1. Used to form causative verbs.
    Synonyms: -гіз (-gız), -із (-ız), -ір (-ır), -дір (-dır), -тір (-tır)
    ренжі- (renjı-, to be offended) + ‎-іт (-ıt) → ‎ренжіт- (renjıt-, to offend)

Usage notes

  • All the causative suffixes are synonymous and carry the same meaning, but the usage is irregular and you can't know which one should be used. The only rule is that (-t) is always used after a vowel, unless the word isn't monosyllabic. Sometimes some verbs may have a few synonymous causatives formed by different suffixes:
    жаз- (jaz-, to write) + -ғыз (-ğyz) > жазғыз- (jazğyz-, to make someone write)
    жаз- (jaz-, to write) + -дыр (-dyr) > жаздыр- (jazdyr-, to make someone write)
  • And it is also possible to attach multiple suffixes, either forming a new meaning or just keeping the same one:
    оқы- (oqy-, to read) + (-t) -қыз (-qyz) > оқытқыз- (oqytqyz-, to make someone read)
    өл- (öl-, to die) + -тір (-tır) > өлтір- (öltır-, to kill) + (-t) > өлтірт- (öltırt-, to make someone kill)
