For sentiment analysis in medium to low-resourced languages, a multilingual approach that resorts to machine translation can be competitive with standard approaches to the task. We develop a zero-shot hashtag segmentation framework and demonstrate how it can be used to improve the accuracy of multilingual sentiment analysis pipelines. Besides, also being useful for accelerating data annotation, our zero-shot framework establishes a new state-of-the-art for hashtag segmentation datasets, surpassing even previous approaches that relied on feature engineering and language models trained on in-domain data.
