Mom, where did you put my phone?

آنا، موبایلیمی هارا قویوبسان؟

«موبایل» is the everyday Iranian borrowing, while «قویوبسان» uses the colloquial second-person perfect ending heard in family speech.

Call me when you arrive.

چاتاندا مَنه زَنگ ائلَیَرسَن.

«زَنگ ائلَیَمَک» follows the Iranian Persian pattern of using “make/do” with a phone call, rather than the more formal «زَنگ وورماق».

The reduced copula -di in نئچەیەدی is a colloquial South Azerbaijani form, signaling everyday Iranian Azerbaijani speech.
