How do you say where were born in french?

The most common and natural way to say "where were you born?" in French is:

Où êtes-vous né(e)?

* (pronounced "oo") means "where"

* êtes-vous (pronounced "et-voo") means "are you"

* né(e) (pronounced "nay" for male, "neh" for female) means "born"

Example:

* Où êtes-vous né? (Where were you born? - Male)

* Où êtes-vous née? (Where were you born? - Female)

You can also use the more formal:

Où êtes-vous né(e) au monde?

This literally means "Where were you born in the world?" but is used to emphasize the location of birth.
