   • 2012, Heather Rutman, The Girl's Guide to Depravity: How to Get Laid Without Getting Screwed, Philadelphia, P.A., London: Running Press, →ISBN, page 79:

     It's so refreshing to be with a guy who actually wants to be seen with you in the daytime that you convince yourself you can ignore the busted grille, the acne, backne, and chestne, or the fact that YOU normally wouldn't want to be seen with HIM in the daytime if you weren't so tired/desperate/horny. But resist.

     It's fucking weird. Yes, it's just a job, but most people's jobs don't consist of slamming your vagina against the flaccid, nylon-wrapped penis of a guy wearing massive amounts of foundation to conceal his assne.

   • 2016, Robert Wilder, Nickel, Santa Fe, N.N.: Leaf Storm Press, →ISBN, page 250:

     I know this sounds ghey, but he had the sad eyes of someone all the girls once loved before puberty took a huge hairy dump on him. Now he had a big Abomination body, a fivehead, robot jaw, clown feet, and acne. I didn't look, but probably backne and neckne too.

     Bodne tends to be more inflammatory (think: big red bumps or cysts instead of just blackheads), making it challenging for drugstore creams to clear everything up on their own—especially with severe breakouts. Also, your body is a much larger area compared to your face.

• -line

From Proto-Finnic *-nëk. Probably related to the essive suffix *-na. Compare Erzya -нек (-ńek, comitative case suffix).

• IPA^(key): /-ne/, [-ne̞] (usually)
• IPA^(key): /-neˣ/, [-ne̞(ʔ)] (some speakers)

-ne

1. The suffix used to form the comitative case. It denotes companionship and ownership, and is written where English would use "together with (one's possession)".

   Menin ruskeine koirineni.

   I went together with my brown dog.

   Tiibet on mielenkiintoinen maa suurine vuorineen.

   Tibet is a fascinating land, together with its great mountains.

• Relatively rare in spoken Finnish. The idea of comitative is more often expressed with other structures, particularly the postposition kanssa (“together with”).
• Grammatically comitative is always plural, even if used of a singular object.
• In nouns the suffix -ne is appended with the appropriate possessive suffix. In Wiktionary the declension tables of Finnish nouns show the comitative with the 3rd person suffix -en to form -neen.
• See the appendix on Finnish nominal cases for more information on how the comitative case is used.

• IPA^(key): /-neˣ/, [-ne̞(ʔ)]

    ‎sentire + ‎-ne → ‎sentirne

    • If the infinitive form ends in -arre, final -re is dropped:

    ‎eccovi + ‎-ne → ‎eccovene

    • If the personal pronoun in question is -gli, an -e- is inserted between the pronoun and -ne:

From ne (“not”).

• (Classical Latin) IPA^(key): /ne/, [nɛ]
• (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA^(key): /ne/, [ne]

-ne (interrogative enclitic)

1. Added to the end of a word in a phrase (usually the first word) to make it a question.

   Nihilne in mentem?

   Does nothing suggest itself to your mind?

   Ah, pergisne?

   Ah, at it again?

   Quid tandem te impedit? Mosne maiorum?

   What hinders you? The customs of the ancestors?

   Potesne mihi succurrere, quaeso?

   Can you help me, please?

2. or… (introduces a question or an alternative)

• A question requiring an answer of "yes" or "no" is formed by adding -ne to the emphatic word:

  Is tibi mortemne vidētur aut dolōrem timēre?

  Does it seem to you to be death that he fears or pain?

  Hīcine vir usquam nisi in patriā moriētur?

  Shall this man die anywhere but in his native land?

  Tūne id veritus es?

  Did you fear that?

• The enclitic -ne is sometimes omitted.

  Patēre tua cōnsilia nōn sentīs?

  Do you not see that your schemes are manifest?

• When -ne is added to a negative word (such as nōnne) an affirmative answer is expected.

  Nōnne animadvertis?

  Aren't you paying attention?

• nōnne
• anne
• satine/satin
• scin

• -que

-ne

1. A variant of -tne; added to adjectives or verbs to form abstract nouns.

• IPA^(key): /ne/

-ne

1. Used to form the strong masculine accusative singular of adjectives

   ‎blind (“blind”) + ‎-ne → ‎blindne

   ‎grēne (“green”) + ‎-ne → ‎grēnne

• -ine

From Proto-Celtic *-inyos.^[1][2] Cognate with Proto-Brythonic *-ɨnn, *-enn.

-ne

1. Forms singulatives of certain plural nouns.

   ‎grán (“grain”) + ‎-ne → ‎gráinne (“a grain”)

   ‎folt (“hair”) + ‎-ne → ‎foiltne (“a hair”)

   ‎froích (“heather”) + ‎-ne → ‎froíchne (“a sprig of heather”)

2. Forms abstract derivatives of certain nouns.

   ‎sreng (“string, cord”) + ‎-ne → ‎sringne (“umbilical cord”)

This suffix appears to only have been weakly productive. There are several instances of singulatives suffixed with -ne that are additionally prefixed with óen (“one”), which suggests that -ne was sometimes considered insufficient to denote singulativity by itself.^[1] Beyond Old and Middle Irish the suffix is only found in fossilized forms.

From Old Irish -ni.

-ne

1. -selves (emphatic)

• Added to nouns in the presence of the possessive adjective to emphasize the possessor rather than the thing possessed (NB: Ignores broad/slender rule):

  ‎ar n-athair (“our father”) + ‎-ne → ‎ar n-athair-ne (“our father”)

  ‎ar càr (“out car”) + ‎-ne → ‎ar càr-ne (“our friend”)

• Added to prepositional pronouns to add emphasis (not to create a reflexive pronoun):

  ‎againn (“at us”) + ‎-ne → ‎againne (“at us”)

• -sa
• -san
• -se

-ne

1. (archaic) Marker of definiteness on masculine nouns in the plural

   Synonym: -na (modern; feminine)

   ‎platser (“places”) + ‎-ne → ‎platserne (“the places”)

• The difference between -ne and -na is that the former was used for masculine nouns, while the latter was used for feminine, a category lost in modern Swedish, which has merged the two genders into the so-called common gender. Thus, the definite of stenar would be "stenarne", while the definite of kvinna would be "kvinnorna", the same as the modern form.

• -en, en

-ne

1. Duoplural number inflection. On nouns in gender III.6, it indicates either collective number or singular noncount (mass) and has corresponding singular agreement marking on verb-forms. (See also: -na, -ną, -nemą.)
