We speak your language.
Explanation:
This is indeed what it means. One would not say "We speak in your language" in English.

Shalom. Salaam.

Sorry for repeated pair reversals here. Each time I reversed the pair, the system re-reversed my reversals. There is obviously a problem in the system that needs to be addressed.

אנו דוברים בשפתך


Explanation:
I am afraid it's not the correct translation. What the Hebrew phrase you quoted says is "We are talking in your language".

The correct translation of "We speak your language" is

אנו דוברים את שפתך

OR

אנו דוברים בשפתך
