This paper describes an approach to detect idiomaticity only from the contextualized representation of a MWE over multilingual pretrained language models. Our experiments find that larger models are usually more effective in idiomaticity detection. However, using a higher layer of the model may not guarantee a better performance. In multilingual scenarios, the convergence of different languages are not consistent and rich-resource languages have big advantages over other languages.
