On the Functional Differences between the Discourse Particles Ne and Yone in Japanese.
Year: 2014
Type: article
Abstract: The Japanese discourse particles (sentence-final particles) ne and yone both have the functions that can be roughly characterized as the ⟨shared information ⟩ use and the ⟨call for confirmation ⟩ use. In the literature, an ad-equate descriptive analysis has not been ob-tained as to how the choice between the two particles is made. This paper aims to clarify discourse conditions under which ne and yone can be felicitously used. 1
