Template:Which lang/doc

Why is this tag here?
Non-English words should be tagged with lang (for languages shown in their native writing system) or transl (for transliterations into the Latin alphabet). This is useful for a variety of reasons.

In this case, an editor (probably a participant in the moss spell check project) attempted to tag this word or phrase, but could not identify the language.

How can I fix it?

 * If you aren't sure of the language being used, you can:
 * Leave the tag as-is.
 * Try translate.google.com or Wiktionary
 * Ask the editor who added that word to the article in the first place.
 * Find someone who speaks a language this might be; Language recognition chart can help narrow down the possibilities.
 * Ask on the article's talk page.
 * Ask at Reference desk/Language.
 * If you are certain of the language being used:
 * Find the 2- or 3-letter ISO 639 language code. You can go to the Wikipedia article on the language in question, or see the advice and links to lists at Template:Lang.
 * For languages that are being presented in their native writing system (for example, any language that uses the Latin alphabet, like French; or Japanese written in kanji and kana) apply the lang tag like this:
 * Je suis française.
 * (The language code for French is "fr".)
 * 日本
 * (The language code for Japanese is "ja".)
 * For transliterations, see the instructions at transl; generally it works something like this:
 * russkij
 * The language code for Russian is "ru" and russkij is a transliteration of русский.
 * These tags automatically applies italics, so you can usually remove any existing markup that's trying to do that.
 * Remove the which lang tag.

Thanks for your help!
