However, not much discussion has taken place about their differences. This study argues that the two Japanese sentence-final particles, yone and ne, express a distinction about the speaker’s state of mind: yone indicates that an idea has been on the speaker’s mind, while ne suggests a thought just emerged into the speaker’s awareness. Naturally occurring conversation data provides evidence for this claim. The results show that the particles reflect the speaker’s choice of presenting his/her state of awareness.  \nKeywords: Japanese, discourse, pragmatics, sentence-final particle, yone  \n1 Introduction  \nNe andyone are two frequently used Japanese sentence-final particles in conversation (e.g., AsanoCavanagh, 2011; Cook, 1990, 1992; Hasegawa, 2010; Hasunuma, 1992, 1995; Hayano, 2011, 2013; Izuhara, 1993, 1994, 2001, 2003, 2008; Kamio, 1994, 1995, 1997; Katagiri, 2007; Kato, 2001; Lee, 2007; Maynard, 1993; Miyazaki 2002; Morita, 2002; Saigo, 2011; Takubo & Kinsui, 1997; Tanaka, 2000; Xu, 2016; Zhang, 2009) . While both yone and ne can be used as tag-like questions to seek confirmation, they can also show agreement or empathy (e.g., Hasunuma, 1992, 1995; Izuhara, 1993, 1994, 2001, 2003; Noda, 1993) . Although yone and ne functions overlap, interchangeability has not been thoroughly studied (Asano-Cavanagh, 2011; Hayano, 2013; Noda, 1993; Xu, 2016). Also, as Hayano (2011) points out, research on Japanese sentence-final particles tends to consider that their use is rule-governed by the objectively discernible distribution of knowledge or information. However, such perspective overlooks the agency of the individual in presenting knowledge of information when using sentence-final particles through the dynamic courses of conversation (Hayano, 2011) .  \nUsing naturally occurring conversation data where yone and ne occur in a response environment, the present study attempts to show these differences between yone and ne：  \na. Yone is a marker of existing awareness that indicates an idea had already been on the speaker’s mind.  \nb. Ne is a marker of new awareness that shows a thought just emerged into the speaker’s awareness.  \nc. What ne presents is not necessarily something new, and it can be something the speaker had not thought of until the time of utterance.  \nd. Speakers systematically select yone or ne to present their states of awareness.  \nIt is necessary here to clarify three critical terms in this study: “response,” “new awareness,”and “existing awareness.” First, according to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, a response is  \nsomething constituting a reply or a reaction.1 In other literature, a response can appear as the answer part in a summons-answer sequence (Schegloff, 2007), an initial assessment of something, or the second assessment in an assessment pair (Pomerantz, 1984) . In this paper, the term“response” is used in a broad sense to examine four situations: (i) response to immediate conditions;  \n(ii) response in recall; (iii) response to the answer to a question; and (iv) response to assessment.2 Second, throughout this paper, the term “new awareness” is used to describe what a speaker currently thinks, feels, or what the speaker has just noticed or recalled at the time of the utterance. Third,“existing awareness” refers to the speaker’s knowledge or thoughts, such as information mentioned in previous discourse or knowledge already established before the moment ofutterance. Worth noting is that the present study does not intend to provide a general account for the  \ndistinction between yone and ne.
