Euphemisms are culturally variable and often ambiguous, posing challenges for language models, especially in low-resource settings.This paper investigates how cross-lingual transfer via sequential fine-tuning affects euphemism detection across five languages: English, Spanish, Chinese, Turkish, and Yorb.We compare sequential fine-tuning with monolingual and simultaneous fine-tuning using XLM-R and mBERT, analyzing how performance is shaped by language pairings, typological features, and pretraining coverage.Results show that sequential fine-tuning with a highresource L1 improves L2 performan
Research goal: How does the latency-accuracy trade-off compare between XLM-R-Large and distilled smaller models like DistilXLM-R when deployed for euphemism detection in low-resource languages, as measured by Pareto curves on the Euphemism Detection Benchmark (EDB) across English, Spanish, and Turkish?
