Yes but in a bit of an odd way as I ubderstand it, not quite a cousin of English not quite a dialect but its given the classification of an independent language since most folks cant understand it fully. Frankly if Scots is its own language then about a dozen other dialects and accents need to be reclassified as well starting with West Country.
Irish is a legitimately separate language related to Gaelic

Yeah a better one for the list would be Scots, or maybe Caijun English dialect.
Scots is also classed as its own separate language, isn’t it?
