çağırköz
/tʃaʁɯrkøz/
speckle-eyed, with flecked eyes — Said of animals. Tenishev and Suyunchev 1989 illustrates it with a line from a folk text describing a small animal with a short tail and flecked eyes.
- çağırköz it — a speckle-eyed dog
- çağırköz kiştik — a speckle-eyed cat
- çağırköz janıwarçıq kördüm — I saw a speckle-eyed little animal
- kesi çağırköz — itself speckle-eyed

Any thing takes the third-person ending, not only these: bu çağırközdü, bıla çağırközdüle. In texts biznikile is usually kesibiznikile, "our own people", and a surname with -nıqıla names a family: Dudalanıqıla, "the Dudas".
