Sorry for my rad English, it's my native language! {B)

I am American, so yes I speak English.

Yeah... I'm american.

Yes, I have lived in America all my life.

i speak english and american, along with spanish, peruvian, and mexican get rekt

in all seriousness, my main language is spanish, but i live in america, and according to all of the people above me that makes me a native english speaker

Yep my English is native

(I can also speak decent Pig Latin )

I don't speak English, only American.
yeah english was my first language so i guess that means its native

no but i sometimes i forget it isn't

English is my native language. I personally would want to learn 7 other languages.

English is not my native language, It's Finnish! But i do have the best grades possible to get in English and i think i'm pretty good at speaking and writing it. Also, my thoughts are usually in English

(Did you know that "juoksentelisinkohan" roughly translates to "I wonder if I should run around aimlessly")

FYI, just because you were born in a country or live in a country that has a given language that is official or de facto doesn't mean that you are a native speaker of that country's language. (Ex: An American born in America may have Spanish be his native language because of the family who raises him to adopt their cultural practices).

I am a native English speaker because I picked up on the language of my family around me, who speak English.

Good for you for pursuing an academic degree though you cannot be a native speaker because you did not acquire the language that you are currently studying. You have to acquire it in your early childhood years (aka, your baby years).

-_- I think we all know that, StrikeForcer. We aren't stupid.

Born and raised in Peru, never left the country until today, so yeah English is definitely not my native language.

Me too.. I NEVER will leave Peru Although we are not in any World Football!

No, my English is not native, I'm from Colombia and I speak Spanish! (I've mentioned a few times) but I try to have good English in the most part of my posts.
