Yes I think the Basque Comprehensive Aphasia Test was adapted through the Collaboration of Aphasia Trialists group - they have a procedure which is being used for many languages now.
Iβd be thrilled to offer Welsh on my site www.aphasiatherapyonline.com - do you know anyone who could lead that?
Interesting! Are there any Welsh language aphasia assessments?

I've started to lose trust in research from certain places - trial results always seem too perfect. Every outcome is p<0.0001, recruitment is fast... Is it just me?
