    In German the Japanese ne? Is ne?

    Example:

    Kawaii desu ne?

    Es ist niedlich, ne?

    However germans use depending on the region different words with the same meaning.

    “gell, oder? (odda?)” and many more

    I’m gonna need some source on the Portuguese origin of ‘ne’, it sounds too much like the misinfo that arigatou comes from obrigado.

    (I’m so funny at linguists parties)

      It’s actually from Korean. The Portuguese arrived at least 700 years after the attestation of Japanese “ne”.
