Editorial: The Unusual Suspects: Linguistic Deficits in Non-Language-Dominant Neurodegenerative Diseases

Collectively, these articles illustrate the multilevel, cross-linguistic, and transnosological importance of linguistic assessments in non-primarily linguistic neurodegenerative diseases. Systematic speech and language evaluations can promote fine-grained characterizations of each disorder, inform neurocognitive models, and even nurture the quest for transdiagnostic and disease-specific markers –a most pressing task given the escalating growth of neurodegeneration worldwide. May this Research Topic inspire future work in the same direction.
