It is a Gallo-Italic variety, and no, I already checked in the IANA 
subtag registry and it is not present. The nearest language is probably 
Piemontese. However, I'll use "mis", standing for "Uncoded languages",  
as language tag and I'll provide more specific information by attaching 
it to the lexicon through the dcterm:language property.

I must say that, may be just in my case, sounds quite redundant 
indicating the language both in the lexicon and in all the written 
representations.
