ね (Isn't it?)

Isn't it?, Right? (Sentence ending particle)

JLPT N5
Pattern

Sentence + ね

How it works

ね at the end of a sentence invites agreement or confirms something both people share: “isn't it? / right?”. It makes speech sound friendly. Compare よ, which gives new information.

Examples

  • きょうは さむいですね。It's cold today, isn't it?
  • この ケーキ、おいしいですね。This cake is tasty, isn't it?
