Show a prescription, mention allergies and other medicines, and clarify anything unclear; as a pharmacist, ask neutral questions and agree on the next step.
How the language works
Körsetıñızşı and tüsındırıñızşı are polite requests to one person; -şy/-şı softens a form ending in -ñyz/-ñız. In naqtylap alaiyq, -aiyq makes a shared suggestion: “let us clarify”. Qabyldap jürmın describes an ongoing practice: “I am taking”. Därıge allergiam bar means “I am allergic to a medicine”; därıge is in the dative case. These constructions communicate information; they do not replace professional prescribing.
