See the FreeBSD GNOME FAQ at http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq2.html.

Simply set your LANG environment variable to pt_BR.ISO8859-1, and start GNOME, and every app that has a Brazilian Portuguese translation will display it. I don't use KDE, but as I recall KDE is a bit different. You have to install the language bindings for your locale. Just install portuguese/kde3-i18n-pt_BR, and you should be set there (provided your LANG is correctly defined as mentioned above).
