Samenvatting	A Multilingual Recurrent Neural Network (Multilingual RNN) applies the standard RNN architecture — which processes sequences step by step while maintaining a hidden state — to data spanning two or more languages. By training on multilingual corpora or sharing parameters across languages, the model learns cross-lingual sequence representations useful for translation, tagging, classification, and language modeling tasks.	A multilingual transformer is a pre-trained language model built on the transformer architecture and trained jointly on text from dozens to over one hundred languages. Models such as mBERT and XLM-RoBERTa learn shared cross-lingual representations, enabling zero-shot or few-shot transfer: a model fine-tuned on English data can often be applied directly to French, German, Arabic, or Chinese without language-specific labels.
