Resumen

Argentinian  Spanish  intonation  has  been  the  focus  of  intensive  research,  at  least  since the second half of the 20th century. Overall, this research has centred around one variety, i.e. Buenos  Aires  or  ‘porteño’  Spanish,  and  on  one  type  of  sentence,  namely  declaratives,  with  a particular  emphasis  on  broad  focus  declaratives.  We  also  draw  on  this  tradition  in concentrating  on  porteño  Spanish only;  we  nevertheless extend  the  database  by  considering sentence types and utterances other than declaratives.
