Hello, I will have lots of questions on reading Swedish records.
Am I correct that "oakta" is ****?
I think this is a record for Bengt Nilsson's son Nikolaus. What is the word or name before "Bengt"?
What does the "88" after Brita Jakobsdtr mean?

Please always give the source information also. It will help us when we help you.
You can give, Parish, record, years, page.
Also link will help, but bear in mind that FamilySearch and Riksarkivet records are free to everyone, but for ArkivDigital records you have to pay and not all of us have an access to those records.
Yes, oäkta means **** or illegitimate (a little nicer way to say).
Word before Bengt is Arbetaren which means worker.
88 after Brita Jakobsdotter most likely means the birth year of the mother 1788/1888. This I cannot say more because the missing source information and reference what else is written on that record.

Yes, the word oäkta means illegitimate. The word before Bengt's name is likely his occupation or his social position. The number could be a year, or a page number, or something else entirely. Can you include a link to the image or the archive reference number in order to view the full page.
