I speak fluent English vs I speak fluently English

The correct sentence is 'I speak fluent English.' 'Fluent' is an adjective that describes the ability to speak a language well, so it should be used before the language name. 'Fluently' is an adverb that describes how someone speaks a language, but it should be used directly after the language name, not before.
