I've registered https://translations.launchpad.net/+languages/dak as being spoken in the United States.

Regarding the naming, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lakota_language and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dakota_language appear to suggest that these are normally considered to be two distinct though similar languages, and Lakota has its own ISO-639-3 language code (lkt). We would normally follow independent authorities such as ISO-639 on this kind of thing. Would you like us to create https://translations.launchpad.net/+languages/lkt for Lakota?
