I have not dealt much with language issues, but I think the best place to start is to take a look at the documentation for the apacite package: http://ctan.org/pkg/apacite There is a section in the documentation about language-specific issues, where it suggests that you study the .apc file.

If not, perhaps some minor edits to your .apc file will solve the problem. My brief look at german.apc makes me believe that it should be correct already (maybe the problem is that it's not getting loaded?), but I am not so good at German. I hope that helps. Jacob Bishop
