Hello! I have a question, how would you say this in Japanese?

"I didn't know how to say or read anything in Japanese."

Thanks in advance! ^^

"I didn't know how to say anything in Japanese" means 日本語でどう言うか知りませんでした.

"I didn't know how to read anything in Japanese" means 日本語でどう読むか知りませんでした。

どうもありがとうございます！

Can it be combined into one sentence? Or can you put you put また after the 1st sentence so that it would be like " I also ..."
For example:

日本語でどう言うか知りませんでした. 私はまた、日本語でどう読むか知りませんでした。

Is that correct?

Thank you ^^

You can say 日本語でどう言うか知りませんでしたし、日本語でどう読むか知りませんでした。
“日本語でどう言うか知りませんでした. また、日本語でどう読むか知りませんでした” is good, too.
