ようになってきたんですよね

yō ni natte kitan desu yo ne

JA

A polite, soft conversational phrase indicating that something has gradually come to be the case (often with agreement or seeking confirmation from the listener)

最近、日本語が話せるようになってきたんですよね。

Recently, I've gradually become able to speak Japanese, right?

Etymology

This phrase is a combination of Japanese grammatical structures: the conjunctive particle ように, the auxiliary verb なる (to become), the te-form of くる (to come, indicating gradual change over time), the nominalizer ん, the polite copula です, and the sentence-end particles よね for softening and seeking confirmation.

Memory Aid

Break it down: ように indicates the state achieved, なってきた shows gradual change up to now, んです adds emphasis/explanation, よね invites the listener's agreement.
