A Causal antecedent question requires a long answer. Causal antecedent questions are formed according to the following abstract specification: "What state or event causally led to an event or state?". An example of causal antecedent question would be: "How did this experiment fail?" [1][2]

-Explainer:	["So what's your major?"]
-Explainee:	['Chemical engineering.']
-Explainer:	[What made you choose that?] ---> Causal antecedent question
-Explainee:	['Like any freshman,', 'going into chemical engineering,', 'I was like, I like chemistry!', "So I'm gonna go into chemical engineering.", 'But luckily I also like', 'all the math and all the science too.']
