My Husbands family arrived in the USA it 3 generations back. I now need to search his relatives that came here from Austria I don't know how to proceed due to the language barrier. Where do I even begin?

Do you have a hometown in Austria? Records were kept at the local level, so it's important to know the name of the hometown in order to locate records.

Not yet, I am getting prepared next to try to determine which port he arrived at and hopefully figure out which ship.

Also, if you're talking three generations back, could it have been during Austria Hungary? Do you have a surname? For example, I have a great-great grandfather that put Austria down as country of birth, but was actually born in modern day Serbia. Having a name (Slavic, Germanic, Hungarian, etc.) may give a clue.
