Samenvatting	Multilingual Sentiment Analysis (MSA) applies deep learning — most commonly a fine-tuned multilingual language model such as mBERT or XLM-RoBERTa — to classify the sentiment polarity (positive, negative, neutral) of text written in two or more languages, enabling opinion mining across language boundaries without building separate models per language.	Sentence Embeddings convert a sentence or short text into a single fixed-length dense vector that captures its semantic meaning. These vectors allow downstream tasks — semantic similarity, clustering, retrieval, and classification — to operate on numerical representations instead of raw text, making them one of the most versatile building blocks in modern NLP pipelines.
