Sou desu ne! Den satsfinala partikeln ne

Gustafsson, Elin LU (2011) JAPK11 20111
Japanese Studies
Abstract
Ne is maybe the most common sentence-final particle in Japanese, and is a crucial part of the spoken dialogue. Though it is sometimes compared to the English 'tag questions' it is used much more frequently than the English equivalents, and it is hard to find a translation in another language that accurately describes the many functions that ne undoubtedly have. This thesis will attempt to provide an overview both of the basic uses of ne, as well as some more intricate theories. It will also present other sentence-final particles closely connected with ne, as well as how these can combine with other sentence-final particles, not related to ne.
