Does Google Consider a Subdomain as a Separate Domain?

Here's the deal. I got a link from a domain (sitename.com). Now, there's a subdomain of the site (de.sitename.com). If I get a link on de.sitename.com, will Google take it that I got one more link from a root domain? I have a hunch that it won't because a subdomain is not a root domain?

Please let me know what you guys think about it.
