1. Comparative Study of Multilingual Idioms and Similes in Large Language Models (2025 · 14 citations)
   Figurative expressions are closely tied to culture, and it is unclear how well LLMs handle different kinds of them across languages.
2. Looking at the Overlooked: An Analysis on the Word-Overlap Bias in Natural Language Inference (2022 · 13 citations)
   NLI models are known to treat heavy word overlap between premise and hypothesis as a shortcut to "entailment." This paper examines the other end of the same scale.
