Well I use biblatex to produce the chicago citations, used pretty widely in the humanities in N. America, and the LaTeX \cite{} commands under that setup take their optional arguments in square brackets. The most frequent optional argument is a page number for the citation, but I also use them for prefixes to the citation, e.g. a footnote which reads "See also Becker, 59" would be generated like this \autocite[59][See also](Becker2010).
