| Challenge: | Euphemisms are a linguistic device used to soften or neutralize language that may otherwise be harsh or awkward to state directly. |
| Approach: | They train a multilingual transformer model to disambiguate potentially euphemistic terms in multilingual and cross-lingual settings. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model performs better than monolingual models on the disambiguation task compared to monolingual ones in multilingual and cross-lingual settings. |
