There is not single answer to this because there were there about 296 languages north of Mexico and they were in about 29 unrelated families and there were 27 isolates.

As a comparison, German, Icelandic, French, English, Russian, Greek are all in one family. Hebrew and Arabic are in another, Finnish and Hungarian might be in another.

For ONE language, Navajo, Diné bizaad, with 180,000 speakers today in the southwest,

  • corn is: naadą́ą́ʼ
  • beans: naaʼołí
  • squash: naayízí

Corn because it moved north from Mexico often has a shared similar name in nearby languages but still there are 100s of different names
