Moolniwaasi, MoolBhashi

Native is used in a wide context, few of them are covered by other answerers, I am suggesting some left ones-
1. Moolniwaasi-
It is used in following Context of usage of word Native
a. One born in or connected with a place by birth:
e.g. a native of India but now living in the United States.
b. One of the original inhabitants or lifelong residents of a place.

e.g. Bharat ka moolniwaasi(Native to India)

moolBhashi-Native speaker
Usage same as moolNivaasi but is used for native language of a person.
e.g. Hindi ka moolBhashi
