I'm majoring in French and English

[englishhobby]

The entry for the phrase to major in (a subject at university) in dictionaries says that it's used in American English (some dictionaries even say it's North American). What is the British English equivalent for this expression?
E.g. how should I put the following sentence in British English:
I am majoring in French and English at university.
P.S. Is there some other verb besides studying in British English?:?:

I am not a teacher.

Yes, there is.

I am reading French and English at university.

 

[englishhobby]

I am not a teacher.

I am reading French and English at university.

Does reading really mean studying? :shock: Can a student say so? I thought that lecturers read their lectures...
