I am native speaker of neither English nor French. Is this correct?
Hi, everybody.
Can I say : "I am native speaker of neither English nor French. "
Is this correct?Thanks for all the answers.
Now I have come up with another way to say it:
"Neither English nor French is my native lanugage."
Does this sound better?

I understand your meaning, however you can also say it like this since it is more natural: "I am not a native speaker of English or French."

I'm not sure if that is technically 100% grammatically correct or not, but the meaning is very clear either way. However, I would say "I'm not a native English speaker of either English or French" instead. The way that you wrote it sounds less natural.
