Na-Dené languages have a relatively small number of vowels
Vowels can be long or short. They have large inventories of consonants which include stops, fricatives, and affricates.
Stops and affricates can be plain, aspirated, or ejective.
Na-Dené languages use tones to distinguish Navajo has 4 tones, while Apache and Gwich’in have two.
All Na-Dené languages, except for Apache with 12,000 speakers, and Navajo with 149,000 speakers, are seriously endangered or on the verge of extinction. Navajo, the largest Na-Dené language spoken in Arizona and New Mexico, is one of the few North American Indian languages with a growing number of speakers.

Navajo or Navaho is a Southern Athabaskan language of the Na-Dené family, through which it is related to languages spoken across the western areas of North America. Navajo is spoken primarily in the Southwestern United States, especially on the Navajo Nation. It is one of the most widely spoken Native American languages and is the most widely spoken north of the Mexico–United States border, with almost 170,000 Americans speaking Navajo at home as of 2011.
The Western Apache language is a Southern Athabaskan language spoken among the 14,000 Western Apaches in Mexico in the states of Sonora and Chihuahua and in east-central Arizona. There are approximately 6,000 speakers living on the San Carlos Reservation and 7,000 living on the Fort Apache Reservation. In Mexico they mainly live in Hermosillo, Sonora, and other native communities in Chihuahua.

Na-Dene language is a family of Native American languages that includes at least the Athabaskan languages, Eyak, and Tlingit languages. Haida was formerly included but is now considered doubtful. By far the most widely spoken Na-Dene language today is Navajo.
In February 2008, a proposal connecting Na-Dene (excluding Haida) to the Yeniseian languages of central Siberia into a Dené–Yeniseian family was published and well-received by a number of linguists. It was proposed in a 2014 paper that the Na-Dene languages of North America and the Yeniseian languages of Siberia such as the severely endangered Ket language had a common origin in a language spoken in Beringia, between the two continents.
Na-Dené languages have a relatively small number of vowels
Vowels can be long or short. They have large inventories of consonants which include stops, fricatives, and affricates.
Stops and affricates can be plain, aspirated, or ejective.
Na-Dené languages use tones to distinguish Navajo has 4 tones, while Apache and Gwich’in have two.
All Na-Dené languages, except for Apache with 12,000 speakers, and Navajo with 149,000 speakers, are seriously endangered or on the verge of extinction. Navajo, the largest Na-Dené language spoken in Arizona and New Mexico, is one of the few North American Indian languages with a growing number of speakers.

Welcome to my channel! This is Andy from I love languages. Let's learn different languages/dialects together.
For educational purposes only. :D
Navajo or Navaho is a Southern Athabaskan language of the Na-Dené family, through which it is related to languages spoken across the western areas of North America. Navajo is spoken primarily in the Southwestern United States, especially on the Navajo Nation. It is one of the most widely spoken Native American languages and is the most widely spoken north of the Mexico–United States border, with almost 170,000 Americans speaking Navajo at home as of 2011.
The Western Apache language is a Southern Athabaskan language spoken among the 14,000 Western Apaches in Mexico in the states of Sonora and Chihuahua and in east-central Arizona. There are approximately 6,000 speakers living on the San Carlos Reservation and 7,000 living on the Fort Apache Reservation. In Mexico they mainly live in Hermosillo, Sonora, and other native communities in Chihuahua.

It was proposed in a 2014 paper that the Na-Dene languages of North America and the Yeniseian languages of Siberia had a common origin in a language spoken in Beringia, between the two continents.
The name
Edward Sapir originally constructed the term Na-Dene to refer to a combined family of Athabaskan, Tlingit, and Haida (the existence of Eyak was not known to him at the time). In his "The Na-Dene languages: A preliminary report", he describes how he arrived at the term (Sapir 1915, p.558):
Family division
In its non-controversial core, Na-Dene consists of two branches, Tlingit and Athabaskan–Eyak:
