Aside, different word usage does not constitute a different language.

In Switzerland, Austria and Bavaria many a lot words are used which are
unknown in the Germany (okay, Bavaria is a part of Germany ;) ).  But
they all speak variants of the German language.  Thus the Language Code
in all the countries is 'de', and if somebody thinks the northern
German word usage does not fit for Austria, he goes for 'de_AT', etc.

They is valid for 'es', 'en' or 'pt' etc., where 'pt' is an extreme
example because 'pt_BR' is always required.
