Best Answer

If you are talking about Native Americans, then the answer is that prior to contact with Europeans, they did not know Hebrew. After contact, it was unlikely that any Native American even met a Hebrew speaker until at least the 19th Century.

(Today there are some Native Americans who know Hebrew, including my husband.)

If you are talking about India in Asia, Jews first came to India around 500 CE. Jews who lived in India were able to read and pray in Hebrew, but spoke Indian languages in daily communication.

When the Hebrew bible was first translated into Greek, Hebrew was still a spoken language and there is know way to know how many words existed at that time. The Hebrew Bible has about 8000 Hebrew words in it, but the spoken language at that time would have had many more than that.
