A disclosed grouping bucket for a dialect or variety whose parent language currently holds only one live dialect-variety entity in this atlas: Brazilian Portuguese (Descends From Portuguese), Gyeongsang Dialect (Descends From Korean), Kansai Dialect (Descends From Japanese) and Scanian (Descends From Swedish). These four share no genetic or areal relationship with one another; they are grouped here only for browsing at this atlas's current holding size, the same disclosed-bucket approach the language type's own subcategory tree uses for Other Language Families of Asia. Does not belong here: a dialect whose parent language already has its own dedicated subcategory above, or once one of these four parent languages grows enough dialect members of its own to justify a dedicated subcategory, at which point a successor should split it out.
