	Comments:	OK, reindexing that sentence to sense 5. There are over 1000 sentences using ね but most don't have senses tagged. Good to have some for senses 3 and 4.

	Refs:	GG5 (sense 4): 〔語調を整える時〕それでね, 私ね, 泣いちゃったの. And so then..., then I just started crying. だからね, そういう時はこうやってね, ほら, ちゃんと見てて. So that's why when that happens, you do this. Watch now! いやあ, 私はですね, そんなつもりは全然なかったんですがねえ. No! You see, that's not what I meant, not at all.
	Comments:	A recent Tatoeba amendment results in: "彼ね、学校を退学になったの。 He ended up expelled." I was trying to link the "ね" and AFAICT it's not covered here yet, but seems to be this sense in GG5's entry. I'll link it here anyway.

	Refs:	I don't mind it being a separate entry, but then I think sense 3 should go with it, and that it should include ね as a reading (but it should come last, after ねー, ねえ,ねぇ) I think "suf" would be wrong for sense 4 (but maybe fine for sense 3). Exp would be safer I guess.
21.	A* 2019-07-26 04:10:09 Jim Breen <...address hidden...>
	Comments:	I think sense 4 should go off into its own entry. It seems to be here because it shares the lesser surface forms, but it's not related to the main meanings. It's most related semantically to sense 1 of 1529520 (無い/ない) but adding it there would be a mess. As for POS I think I'd duck and call it "suf".
20.	A* 2019-07-25 06:23:56 Marcus Richert <...address hidden...>
	Comments:	I made it adj-pn just because the 無い entry is adj-i, but that might not be ideal, I don't know. I think it's worth including. The difference between できねー etc. and ねー is that できねー is sufficiently covered by sense 3 ("can not"). but it doesn't really comprehensibly cover the ねー in 興味ねー.
19.	A* 2019-07-24 22:36:23 Robin Scott <...address hidden...>
	Comments:	We're combining two very different meanings into one entry here. The ねえ in 興味ねー is completely unrelated to the ねえ in ですねー. If anything, the former belongs in the ない entry. But do we even need sense 4? Any adjective or verb with an あい sound can be written/spoken like this (e.g. うるせえ, できねー, わかんねー, 知らねえ). Also, why adj-pn?
