Automatic dysarthria severity assessment is limited by the scarcity of labeled pathological speech data. To address this, we propose Cross-lingual Retrieval-Augmented Classification (CRAC), which leverages speech from a different language via an align-retrieve-fuse pipeline. Supervised contrastive learning first shapes a severity-focused embedding space, then a vector database is built from the opposite-language corpus. During both training and inference, the classifier retrieves top-k references from the aligned space and fuses them with the input via cross-attention. Evaluated on Korean post-stroke and Italian ALS dysarthria datasets under a speaker-independent three-class protocol, CRAC achieves balanced accuracies of 87.3% on Korean and 86.7% on Italian, improving over monolingual baselines by 8.4 and 20.0 percentage points, respectively.
