"A bilingual child"

Translation: Ett tvåspråkigt barn

[makmegs]

Does this literally translate to 'A two language child?'?

[hipingsters]

I always find it difficult to hear the difference between "-et" and "-igt" at the end of words. Is this just because I'm non-native, or are the sounds the same?

[Zmrzlina]

They're not the same, but they're very simlilar, since the G is silent in -ig(t).

[Tinna.G]

varför är flerspråktigt inte också riktigt?

[HelenCarlsson]

Wouldn't that be multilingual?

[Tinna.G]

yes, i guess so :)

[Jblakd]

Is there a reason why this 'ki' is not pronounced like 'shi'?

[HelenCarlsson]

The pronunciation does not change when you add an ending to "språk":
språket - the language (still a "hard" k-sound, compare to "kedja" - chain, which has a "soft" k)
the same holds for the -ig ending
