Exclamation How to add new input language to KT 5.1 firmware

In the new 5.1 firmware of Kindle Touch, there is a "input suggestion“ feature. And I really want to make use of it. Because I want to add Chinese input to it.

I did some homework and here's what I have found:

KT is using a XT9 input method;
in /usr/share/keyboard folder, there are 8 languages folders. Within each one, there are a .ldb file(I found out that it's a word dictionary database.), a .kdb file(defines keys), 4 keymap files for different dimensions of screen, a libpredictor.so and a utils.so.

So I try to replace the .ldb and .kdb files with Chinese files, but it didn't work.
Maybe my Chinese files are not suitable here. Or maybe I'm heading to the complete wrong way.

Is there anyone familiar with it here that can give me some clues?
