تجلیات اختلالات مورفولوژیکی در زبان پریشی یونانی: مطالعه موردی

The present study addresses the issue of morphological manifestations specific to non-fluent aphasia in Greek. The off-line performance of a Greek-speaking aphasic patient is investigated using Paradis'(1987) Bilingual Aphasia Test. His difficulties with inflectional morphology are further probed through a series of comprehension, production, repetition and reading tasks. Results obtained show a dissociation in the patient's processing of nouns and verbs related to language-specific morphological features of these grammatical categories. This study underscores the importance of taking the particularities of a given language into account when interpreting aphasic manifestations and sheds new light on the issue of syndrome variability.
