Monoglot, just as one who speaks several is a polyglot. We use "bilingual" for speaking two languages because English uses Latin words for things that are relatively common. Although the inability to speak more than one language is extremely common, it is in fact so common that we rarely need a word for it, and any word we very seldom use is, by English custom, taken from Greek.
