This doesn't seem Italian to me. In Italian, CH doesn't come before A, O nor U.

That’s fake Italian he made as a child when he only spoke English so it obviously doesn’t conform to the Italian orthography very well.

I know a guy who used to say lumisee for "it's snowing" when he was a kid. It's a fine verb and would deserve some wider use.
