I'm doing a school project. We where given 6 words and we have to find out how to say them in a different language. Every word has to be a different language. I found the first five words. But the 6th word is flowers in the Apache language. The problem is, when I looked it up on the internet, I found out there are many different languages among the Apache tribes.
I need the proper spelling and how to pronounce it.
How can I find the answer to this?

First, pick one Apache language and stick with it.
Next, I found a small talking English- (Western) Apache
dictionary at http://www.wusd.k12.az.us/Links/Staff/BGood/Apachedictionary/
Apachedict.html
but the word for "flowers" wasn't there.
Maybe you could substitute another word for flowers
and go with that.
My favorite word in the little dictionary I
mentioned is "shash" = bear.
It sounds like "shush".
If flowers must be the 6th word, try to find another
language.
How about Hawaiian? Flowers is nā pua.
Or perhaps an African language like Swahili-
flowers = maua.
Sorry I couldn't find the word you wanted.

If you go by the "Dances With Wolves" method. flower would be "stick with petals" "sticks with petals" for plural.
