Proto-Turkic
Etymology
The second vowel of the suffix seems to appear after the medieval era. For an unknown reason, the word *ẹk(k)inti (“second”) has an exclusive variant *-inti, however according to Erdal it may be a seperate suffix.
Has been compared to Manchu ᠊ᠴᡳ (-ci).
The variant form *-inči is not attested in Old Turkic, which replaced the *-inč in all environments except perhaps *ẹk(k)inč (attested as 𐽰𐽶𐽷𐽶𐽺𐾀𐽶 (ʾykynty /ékinti/).)
