Dutch is in a category called “German” that also includes Low German, Middle German, High German, Alemannic, and Yiddish. The next level up includes stuff like English, Frisian, Swedish, and the other Germanic languages. For comparison, the “Spanish” category that’s on the same level as “German” includes Aragonese, Castilian, Ladino, and Leonese (but not Catalan, that’s in a separate category)
They’re not grouped like that. Sorry if I explained poorly. The game has categories of languages and then sub-categories within those. Germanic is a top-level category. It includes the sub-categories German, Frisian, English, and Scandinavian. Dutch, Low German, and the others in that first list go in the German sub-category. Frisian is in the Frisian sub-category, English is in English, and Swedish is in Scandinavian

Grouping English and Frisian with Swedish is ridiculous. It’s like they didn’t even bother giving Wikipedia a cursory glance.

Ah okay, that makes much more sense!
