Reflexive

Khalkha "reflexive" nouns turn into Kazakh nouns with an optional possessor that agrees with the subject of the sentence. When translating from Kazakh, a noun whose possession agrees with the subject should be translated as just reflexive.

• (khk) би гэр лүүгээ буцах ёстой → мен үйге қайтуым керек
• (khk) би гэр лүүгээ буцах ёстой → мен үйіме қайтуым керек

Khalkha inanimate nouns don't take an accusative morpheme with accusative-case reflexive nouns, so the accusative has to be added back in Kazakh.

• (khk) би гэрээ санав → мен үйімді сағындым

Expressions for "to like"
