I am a Native woman. I believe I understand what you are talking about. In Native communities there is definately a certain slang that is spoken. I was teaching a class on contemporary Native culture to youth and was going to teach Native slang as a component, unfortunately we never got the chance to get to that topic. Anyhow if you want a list of some Native slang, just email me. Maybe this will help your friend. My email is NatashaChandiJoseph@gmail.com. Take Care.

Given the different languages between tribes/Nations, sure, and dialects among tribes within a Nation may not help either, maybe.

On the whole, Americans are from such diverse backgrounds and ethnicities that such misunderstandings are far more commonplace than one might suspect.
