Description
SILNLP includes glosses for Major KBT's in four languages (English, Spanish, French, and Indonesian) and allows vernacular glosses to be added to the training data during preprocessing if the source language is one of these 4 LWC's.
Paratext 9 also offers Major KBT's in 3 additional languages - Portuguese, Simplified Han, and Traditional Han.
This enhancement request is for adding support for these 3 additional languages to the SILNLP KBT processing.

Research direction
Start by locating the SILNLP KBT processing and preprocessing entry points that handle Major KBT glosses and source-language checks. Trace how the existing English, Spanish, French, and Indonesian support is represented, then confirm that Portuguese, Simplified Han, and Traditional Han are accepted and their glosses can be added to training data.
