Abstract:

This book brings together 12 previously unpublished language profiles based on
the original Language Assessment, Remediation and Screening Procedure (LARSP).
The languages featured are: Bangla, Croatian, Colombian Spanish, Inuktitut,
Norwegian, Portuguese, Russian, Slovak, Slovenian, Swahili, Tamil and Turkish.
Some of these languages are included as they are likely to be encountered as
home languages of clients by speech-language therapists and pathologists
working in the UK, the US, Australia and elsewhere. Others are included
because they are languages found where speech-language pathology services are
provided, but where no grammatical profile already exists. The collection will
be an invaluable resource book for speech-language pathologists who wish to
analyse and assess the grammatical abilities of their clients who speak one of
these languages. This new collection complements previous books in this series
on the same theme and together they cover 34 languages of the world.
 



Linguistic Field(s): Applied Linguistics
