Causative Verbs

Q: How do I know which of the 7 suffixes to use?

It depends on the stem. Vowels take `-т`. Voiceless consonants take `-тыр/-тір` or `-қыз/-кіз`. Voiced consonants take `-дыр/-дір` or `-ғыз/-гіз`. Short verbs often use `-ыр/-ір`.

Q: Can I use 'make' and 'let' with the same suffix?

Yes! In Kazakh, the context tells you if it's force (`make`) or permission (`let`). `Ойнаттым` can mean 'I made him play' or 'I let him play'.
