2. **[MEGAVERSE: Benchmarking Large Language Models Across Languages, Modalities, Models and Tasks](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/ahuja-2024-megaverse-benchmarking-large-language-models/)** *(2024 · 74 citations)* Most LLM evaluation targets English, so it is unclear how recent models handle other languages, especially low-resource ones.
3. **[IrokoBench: A New Benchmark for African Languages in the Age of Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/adelani-2025-irokobench-new-benchmark-african-languages/)** *(2025 · 69 citations)* Large language models are usually tested in English and a few other well-resourced languages. When African languages are tested at all, it is mostly on simple classification, so we know little about how well models reason or recall knowledge in them. The authors built IrokoBench to fill this gap. Professional…
