Probably only Turkic languages, not Mongolian either.

- wruza 6y agoFor me that probability fails. Look I'm quarter tatar myself and they definitely use -chi (-че, -чы) in that exact sense. Same thing for surrounding regions, and I can even detect similar construct in mongolian songs and simple speeches when I hear these (it is reduced to -ch there). E.g. эм - drug, эмч - doctor, жолоо - to drive, жолооч - driver.
