all 6 apache languages (Jicarilla, Mescalero & Chiricahua (pretty much the same language), Plains-Apache, Lipan, Western Apache) are athabaskan
Most Apaches speak English today.

Traditionally, the Apaches speak southern Athabaskan language.

Apache has at least two language divisions: Eastern and Western. Some consider Chiricahua-Mescalero is a dialect of Western Apache; others consider it a separate language. Some people consider Jicarilla, Lipan, and Plains Apache to be separate languages; others consider them to be dialects of Eastern Apache.

"Other than oral communication, Apaches also intercommunicated with the use of smoke signals from faraway distances. Symbols, pictures , and gestures were used to communicate and establish trade with other tribes"

The Apache Indians spoke the Apache language. It is a branch of the Cree Indian language family.
