Your language skills are the only thing...

Hi



Could you please tell me if the following sentence is correct and natural?

Your language skills are the only thing tht you have an edge over her about.

(the speaker means to say that she is better than the listener in every respect other than the language skills.)

Thanks,

Tom

It sounds very awkward to me. I would phrase it this way: Your superior language skills are what gives you an edge over her.
