R2.10 - recommendations: systematize question terminology

[jvcasillas]

The author(s)might consider using the term polar or yes/no questions throughout, since these terms are more accessible outside the Hispanic Linguistics lit, which tends to use “absolute interrogatives”.

Action: systematize (see also https://github.com/RAP-group/empathy_intonation_perc/issues/32)

[katherine-taveras]

1) Consider yes-no questions in Caribbean and Argentine Spanish, which are produced with a nuclear hat pattern in the former and a final falling F0 contour in the latter, both of which differ from the more common final rise found in many other varieties (See Hualde & Prieto, 2015). 2) Specifically, Brandl et al. (2020) examined the effect of L2 proficiency on the perception of broad-focus and narrow-focus declarative and polar and yes-no questions in adult L2 learners of Spanish. 3) This interaction effect on sentence processing was found for both partial and yes-no questions. 4) Yes-no questions in Standard Peninsular Spanish, for example, have the common final rise found in many other varieties of Spanish, as well as Standard American English.

@katherine-taveras 1-4 above are the instances in the text that need to be changed, right?

[katherine-taveras]

yes. These are the questions rephrased with the "yes-no questions" @jvcasillas

Thank you @katherine-taveras. Included via https://github.com/RAP-group/empathy_intonation_perc/pull/69

Following this suggestion and that of reviewer 1, we have systematized how we refer to all utterance types throughout the revised manuscript. We now refer to absolute interrogatives as 'yes/no questions'.
