Thank you for such a great article. I really enjoyed reading it. Since multilingualism seems to be so pervasive in today's world, it's definitely interesting to see how it affects language. You mentioned above in your reply to Jen from SJU about the therapy process that treatment in only one language is all that is needed and that it will usually generalize to the other language(s). I was wondering, in which language should therapy be performed in to obtain the best results? If it were possible to conduct treatment in any of the languages the client speaks, is there evidence that therapy in L1 would be more beneficial? Or is it better for us to identify the language the client has more impairment in and then performing therapy in that language?
