How do you say? Two questions
I'm a native Japanese.
I'm a native Japanese speaker.
Which is more natural in English?
And another question is :
The person who is a native and American and speaks English.
He/She is a native English speaker of American.
He/She is a native American English speaker.
Native American means "native Indians", right?
Thank you for your cooperation.

Country is -Japan
Nationality is - Japanese
Language - Japanese
You would say "I am a native Japanese speaker" or "I am a native speaker of Japanese"
For the American example-
"He is an American and he is a native English speaker"-you would want to distinguish between the nationality of the person and the spoken language because of the complication of the native people of America-the First Nation people. Similarly, i it were an Australian or New Zealand national
"He is an Australian who is a native English speaker" or "She is a New Zealander who is a native English speaker"
Hope that answers your question :)
