What locals actually say

Can you send me your WeChat?

ᠸᠧᠶᠰᠢᠨ ᠦ ᠨᠡᠷ᠎ᠡ ᠪᠡᠨ ᠨᠠᠳᠠ ᠳᠤ ᠶᠠᠪᠤᠭᠤᠯᠵᠤ ᠥᠭᠬᠦ ᠤᠤ?

ᠸᠧᠶᠰᠢᠨ is the China-local name for WeChat, while ᠶᠠᠪᠤᠭᠤᠯᠵᠤ ᠥᠭᠬᠦ gives the familiar spoken “send it to me” request.

Let’s take a taxi; walking is too cold.

ᠲᠠᠺᠰᠢ ᠪᠠᠷ ᠶᠠᠪᠤᠶ᠎ᠠ᠂ ᠶᠠᠪᠤᠭᠠᠨ ᠶᠠᠪᠤᠬᠤ ᠳᠤ ᠳᠡᠩᠳᠡᠭᠦᠦ ᠬᠦᠢᠲᠡᠨ ᠪᠠᠢᠨ᠎ᠠ.

ᠲᠠᠺᠰᠢ is the everyday Chinese-influenced loan used for a taxi, and the collective suggestion ending ᠶᠠᠪᠤᠶ᠎ᠠ makes this sound like a spoken local proposal.

I’ll be there in ten minutes.

ᠠᠷᠪᠠᠨ ᠮᠢᠨᠦᠲ ᠤᠨ ᠳᠠᠷᠠᠭ᠎ᠠ ᠬᠦᠷᠦᠨ᠎ᠡ.

ᠮᠢᠨᠦᠲ is the routine China-facing time loan, and the compact future form ᠬᠦᠷᠦᠨ᠎ᠡ is the natural family-message phrasing.

Do you have change?

ᠲᠠᠨ ᠳᠤ ᠵᠠᠳᠠᠭᠠᠢ ᠮᠥᠩᠭᠦ ᠪᠠᠢ᠌ᠨ᠎ᠠ ᠤᠤ?

ᠵᠠᠳᠠᠭᠠᠢ ᠮᠥᠩᠭᠦ means small change or loose cash, a familiar Inner Mongolian shop phrase.

Turn right at that corner.

ᠨᠠᠭᠠᠳᠤ ᠪᠤᠯᠤᠩ ᠳᠡᠭᠡᠷ᠎ᠡ ᠪᠠᠷᠠᠭᠤᠨ ᠲᠡᠶᠢᠰᠢ ᠡᠷᠭᠢᠭᠡᠷᠡᠢ.

ᠲᠡᠶᠢᠰᠢ is the Inner Mongolian directional construction meaning toward, giving the instruction a natural local route-finding feel.

Is the food ready?

ᠬᠤᠭᠤᠯᠠ ᠪᠡᠯᠡᠨ ᠪᠣᠯᠵᠤ ᠪᠠᠢ᠌ᠨ᠎ᠠ ᠤᠤ?

ᠬᠤᠭᠤᠯᠠ is the Inner Mongolian everyday word for food or a meal, rather than the Khalkha form хоол.

My mother is at home.

ᠡᠵᠢ ᠮᠠᠨᠢ ᠭᠡᠷ ᠲᠡᠭᠡᠨ ᠪᠠᠢ᠌ᠨ᠎ᠠ.

ᠡᠵᠢ is a warm Inner Mongolian family term for mother, signaling familiar household speech.

I am leaving work early today.

ᠥᠨᠦᠳᠦᠷ ᠠᠵᠢᠯ ᠠᠴᠠ ᠪᠠᠨ ᠡᠷᠲᠡ ᠭᠠᠷᠤᠨ᠎ᠠ ᠰᠢᠦ.

ᠰᠢᠦ is the Inner Mongolian emphatic sentence-final particle, adding the casual sense of I am telling you or you know.
