I do not know about TypeScript, but you are mistaken about most of the other 
languages.

It is particular nonsense to say that JScript .NET would be a “superset” of 
JavaScript.  In fact, their similarity draws from the fact that both of them 
are implementations of ECMAScript:

JavaScript is Netscape's, now Mozilla.org's, implementation of ECMAScript 
Editions 1, 2, 3, and (currently) 5.x.

JScript .NET (JScript 8.x and 10.x) is Microsoft's implementation of a 
Netscape proposal for ECMAScript Edition 4 which, among other features, 
provides class-based inheritance, and was maintained by Waldemar Horwat of 
Netscape back then, that has been adapted for Microsoft's .NET framework.
