Copy all files under specific directory name format in Grunt?

I have translation files under a t9n directory throughout my app…in some component directories, etc.

JavaScript

And I’m looking to create a grunt task to copy all those .json files into an assets directory when the app is built.

Is there a way to grab all contents under specific directory names? So that I could say….for every directory under app, grab the contents of any t9n directory?

I know you can do things like…

"**/*.{png}" to say copy all PNG files….but not sure what it would be for the above.

and ended up with something like this…
