since they are
In this case, I wouldn't translate "tratar-se" in the literal sense -- it creates an awkward grammatical structure. Here's what I would say:
"With regard to the semantics of classifiers, since they are a single set of morphemes, they (can) only correspond to one of the three types of semantic groups."
"With regard to the semantics of classifiers, since they are a single set of morphemes, they (can) only correspond to one of the three types of semantic groups."

: Sorry Nubia, you can't use "once" in this context. "Uma vez que" in Portuguese corrsponds to "since" in English. "Once" would not be understood. However, picking up on your suggestion a possibility would be "...since, because it is..."
