Look! Here! … nè, kìa

At the end of a sentence, nè points something out, "here, look": Đây nè! Here it is! Coi nè! Look! You say it when you hand something over or show someone something. In Hà Nội the word is này: Đây này!, Nhìn này!

Kìa points to something further away, over there, often with a little surprise: Xe buýt tới kìa! Here comes the bus! Chị Lan kìa! There's Lan! It's the same in the South and the North. Kia kìa is stronger: "right over there!"

Nè can also follow each item when you list things for someone, as if pointing at them one by one: Có phở nè, bún bò nè, cơm tấm nè. (In Hà Nội, này.)

This nè ends a sentence or an item. Inside a phrase, "this" after a noun is always này: cái này (this one). The two can meet: Cái này nè. This one, here. Calling Nè! or Này! to get someone's attention is casual: fine between friends, blunt with anyone else.
