I speak some Polish and have been there 29 times but I know I am not bilingual. What does that term signify? Does that mean fluent in two languages? Native speaker of at least one of them? Native speaker in your own country of birth language but fluent in two other languages?
Do you see my point?

Subject: Re: FW: looking for a native English speaker with good knowledge of the Turkish language
Pedantically speaking, 'native' means a person who was born in a country, and in this context, would therefore mean a person who was born in an English-speaking country. Ditto 'mother tongue'.
I agree with Anitha that 'native', with all its negative connotations, it is an uncomfortable word to use, but also with Stephanie that 'fluent' is not an accurate definition, especially when translating a questionnaire where precise definitions are required. I don't know if it's an urban myth (but useful nonetheless), but I have heard several times that a particular language did not have words for 'oral sex' and it was translated in a questionnaire on sexual behaviour and HIV transmission as 'talking about sex'.
Would 'bilingual' be a solution?

Interesting! To me, as an absolute non-native English speaker it is not always clear when someone is considered “fluent”.
Native however seems clearer. Or am I misstaken here?

Subject: looking for a native English speaker with good knowledge of the Turkish language
Dear colleagues
My colleague Dr Hakki Demirkapu is looking for a native English speaker with good knowledge of Turkish language, for a translation of a semi-structured questionnaire for his PhD thesis on advanced care planning in Turkish patients.
I suppose this mailinglist is our best shot of finding that person...
Could you help us out here?
Thank you!
Have a great summer,
best wishes
