The word saatchi doesn't sound Arabic, especially the suffix, "chi". Could it be Turkish? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 213.139.195.162 (talk • contribs) .

I have deleted "in Arabic" until and unless it can be verified. Tyrenius 15:43, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

ساعة or 'sa3a' means watch. The chi is an Iraqi pronounciation of the suffix 'ji', which is added on to a word to denote a profession. An example of this is the Iraqi politican Adnan al-Pachachi, pacha being an Iraqi dish.
