Line 70:

* "man" in "Don't do it, man."

* "right" in "The blue one, right?"

* "no" in "You want to go, no?" (slightly archaic)

* "don't you" in "You want to, don't you?"

===Spanish===

In the same way that the words "right" and "no" are used as sentence final particles above in the section on English (as discourse particles), some [[Spanish language|Spanish]] words can be used this way as well. For example:

* "verdad" (''right'') in "Te gustan los libros, ¿verdad?" (''You like books, right?'')

* "no" (''no'') in "Le toca pasar la aspiradora, ¿no?" (''It's your turn to vacuum, no?'')
