Android: language locale

Android allows us to write applications that are specific to languages and regions.

• create locale specific layouts if language has different layout than default (i.e. Chinese)
• create local specific res/values/strings.xml for each language you want to support
• create local specific res/values/dimens.xml if language requires some minor length adjustments (e.g. German)

Don't forget to provide translations for regional varieties of the language!
