There are MANY Native American tribes, and MANY Native American languages. You need to specify in your question which particular language you want the word translated into.

Lakota language: If you are referring to the color white-it is Ska-pronounced as SHKA.

If you are reffering to White Man - it is Wasicu - WA (like you're saying wash) si (like you're saying she) cu (like you're saying chew).

That question doesn't really have an answer since Native American isn't a language. There are several distinct Native American languages.

Wiki User · Answer

The color white in Cherokee is U-ne-ga (pronounced oo-nay-gah). There is no one language for all Native Americans, each has its own language and dialects.
