Adding a subterm into a term via powershell

Question

Hi,
Not sure if this would be the best place of this post, but here goes.
I have a script that will add a termstore item if it doesn't exist in the termstore. But I'm wondering how would I create a subterm within one that actually exists?
For example I want to be able to create a "subterm 2" in TestTerm2.
#Connect to Central Admin
$taxonomySite = get-SPSite http://site.com
#Connect to Term Store in the Managed Metadata Service Application
$taxonomySession = Get-SPTaxonomySession -site $taxonomySite
$termStore = $taxonomySession.TermStores["STORE"]
#Connect to the Group and Term Set
$termStoreGroup = $termStore.Groups["GROUP"]
#TermSet Create
#$termStoreGroup.CreateTermSet("sets")
$termSet = $termStoreGroup.TermSets["SETS"]
function Add-TermStoreItem
DO{
$resp = Read-Host "Enter Name"
$Name = $resp
$lookup = $termset.terms | where-object {$_.name -eq $resp}
If ($lookup -eq $Null) {$term = $termSet.CreateTerm($resp, 1033)
Write-Host "The term" $resp "was added to the termstore" -foreground green
$termStore.CommitAll()}
Else {Write-host $resp "Already exists in the termstore please try again" -foreground red}
}While ($lookup -ne $Null)
$taxonomySite.Dispose()
Add-TermStoreItem
Any help would be amazing!

Hey, best way is to create a .csv file and import it to Term Store using powershell. 
Here is an complete solution PowerShell script to import Term-sets from .csv file to Term-Store 
In order to create a Term, under a term - you will need to modify the .csv file and add multiple level
This csv you can modify using excel and add Level 1, 2 till 7 and use the powershell to import from csv.
