A few dozen linguistics problems translated into multiple languages are available on the International Linguistics Olympiad’s website: ioling.org. The IOL consists of an individual and a team contest, and the team contest has featured a few (rather difficult) multimedia problems over the years.

Another major international competition is APLO (Asia Pacific Linguistics Olympiad) with past problems available in English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Bangla, Malaysian, Nepali, Russian, Spanish, and Ukrainian.
