But how do you know whether the part after the colon is a language code

eg "alt" is the ISO 639-2 code for Southern Altai.
Does openstreetmap use the ISO 639-2 codes? It looks to me like it uses
ISO 639-1.
From the multilingual names page:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Multilingual_names
"People seem to generally agree on using name:code=* where code is a
language's ISO 639-1 code, or ISO 639-2 if an ISO 639-1 code doesn't exist."
