Grandparent terms in hover pop-up

I have a word, 주요:

It is the "grandparent" of 주요한: 주요 (noun) -> 주요하다 (verb) -> 주요한 (conjugated verb)

However, hovering over 주요한 only gives 주요하다, which doesn't have a translation:

I didn't need to add a translation to 주요하다, as hovering over 주요하다 shows 주요 and the translation.

It would be great if grandparents with translations were also shown on hover.

Of course, there would need to be a limit to avoid greatgreatgreatgrandparents, or it may not work for some languages/use cases, so a setting to disable might also be good.

Alternatively, all children without translations could update to inherit from their parents?

I would think that it should fallback to grandparents (and however far back is necessary), as you say only for children without their own translations.

Thank you for the detail. This looks like it's related to https://github.com/LuteOrg/lute-v3/issues/236, which is blocked by another issue.
