File talk:La Plianque Billot Saint Hélyi Jèrri.jpg

I would say this is Jèrriais, the language spoken in Jersey. It is a Norman dialect (that, at its turn, is adialect of French). See the article "Jèrriais" in the Wikipedia (in English).

The description is written in Norman language

Hello the Commons staff,

I have seen this file is categorized into: Category:Unidentified language.

The description "Nouormand: La Plianque Billot, Saint Hélyi, Jèrri" is written in Norman language (native denomination: "Nouormand").

The translation in English is: "York Street, Saint Helier, Jersey"

The translation in French is "Rue à La Planque Billot, Saint Hélier, Jersey"

The place described is York Street (locally named in French "Rue à la Planque Billot") in Saint Helier city, capital of Jersey island (an English-Norman island).

Below you can read some informations about this street:

History of St Helier

York Street was known as Rue à la Planque Billot because a bridge had been constructed over the brook or Faux Bie, facing the house of one Billot.
