Translating routes - Child routes lose their translations

Hi there, so I have some config setup on to use translations using phpArray in my config/global.php as such:

'translator' => [
    'translation_file_patterns' => [
        [
            'type'     => 'phpArray',
            'base_dir' => ROOT_PATH .  '/data/language/',
            'pattern'  => '%s.php',
        ],
    ],
],

In my home/first page all translation are loaded successfully between EN and PT. But as I try to use translated routes like so:

'router' => [
        'routes' => [
            'home' => [
                'type' => Segment::class,
                'options' => [
                    'route' => '/[:lang/]',
                    'constraints' => [
                        'lang' => '[a-z]{2}',
                    ],
                    'defaults' => [
                        'controller' => Controller\IndexController::class,
                        'action' => 'index',
                    ],
                ],
                'may_terminate' => true,
                'child_routes' => [
                    'plugin' => [
                        'type' => Segment::class,
                        'options' => [
                            'route' => '{plugin}/',
                            'defaults' => [
                                'controller' => Controller\IndexController::class,
                                'action' => 'plugin',
                            ],
                        ],
                        'may_terminate' => true,
                    ],
                    'contacts' => [
                        'type' => Segment::class,
                        'options' => [
                            'route' => '{contacts}/',
                            'defaults' => [
                                'controller' => Controller\IndexController::class,
                                'action' => 'contacts',
                            ],
                        ],
                        'may_terminate' => true,
                    ],
                ],
            ],
        ],
    ],

As I navigate to those child routes of /plugin/ or /contacts/ they lose the translated strings and return the default index value of $this->translate(string);

I have setup the in global as well the TranslatorAwareTreeRouteStack class like so:

'router' => [
    'router_class' => Laminas\Mvc\I18n\Router\TranslatorAwareTreeRouteStack::class,
],

Here are my language files.

EN:

<?php
    
return [
    // Top Bar
    'Client Support' => 'Client Support',
    
    // Menu
    'Plugin' => 'Plugin',
    'Contacts' => 'Contacts',
    'Register' => 'Register',
    'Login' => 'Login',
    
    // Routes
    'plugin' => 'plugin',
    'contacts' => 'contacts',
];

PT:

<?php
    
return [
    // Top Bar
    'Client Support' => 'Apoio ao Cliente',
    
    // Menu
    'Plugin' => 'Plugin',
    'Contacts' => 'Contactos',
    'Register' => 'Registar',
    'Login' => 'Entrar',
    
    // Routes
    'plugin' => 'plugin',
    'contacts' => 'contactos',
];
