This paper describes the KS@LTH system for SemEval-2020 Task 12 OffensEval2: Multilingual Offensive Language Identification in Social Media. We compare mono- and multilingual models based on fine-tuning pre-trained transformer models for offensive language identification in Arabic, Greek, English and Turkish. For Danish, we explore the possibility of fine-tuning a model pre-trained on a similar language, Swedish, and additionally also cross-lingual training together with English.
