A language teacher in the haze of bilingual aphasia: A Kurdish-Persian case

Following the call for more reflection on bilingual aphasia in different languages, the present study seeks to illuminate the recovery pattern of languages in an aphasic bilingual Kurdish-Persian individual. The standardized versions of the Bilingual Aphasia Test (Paradis, 1987) were administered. The findings revealed non-parallel recovery of languages. The study showed a combination of influential variables may explain the recovery pattern of languages post-stroke. There were also implications for cross-linguistic studies on aphasia.
