Game class Game.java game.xml
You have to add class Game to AndroidManifest.xml

        <activity android:name=".Game" android:label="GameLabel">
        </activity>

package cz.okhelp.listview;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;

public class Game extends Activity{
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        
        // you have to create game.xml 
        setContentView(R.layout.game);
    }
}

- create new folder with values in resources folder in project with extension your language code
For example:
My language is Czech (cs)
I have to create the folder values-cs in res folder

// for locale English is default
/MyProject/res/values 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>

    <string name="app_name">App English default</string>
    <string name="action_settings">Settings English default</string>
    <string name="hello_world">Hello world</string>

</resources>

// for locale Czech (cs)
/MyProject/res/values-cs
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>

    <string name="app_name">Aplikace česky cs</string>
    <string name="action_settings">Nastavení česky</string>
    <string name="hello_world">Ahoj světe!</string>

</resources>

// for locale English US (r is region)
/MyProject/res/values-en-rUS

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>

    <string name="app_name">App English Us locale</string>
    <string name="action_settings">Settings English Us locale</string>
    <string name="hello_world">Hello world from USA :)</string>

</resources>

Into every values folder put strings.xml file
Translate every string from values folder into your locale.

Example source code for Android development. How set gray text to EditText when EditText is blank.
Hint text to display when the text is empty.
In layout/main.xml insert to EditText row Attribute Name android:hint="Some text"

<EditText
        android:id="@+id/myEdit" 
	android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:hint="Some text"
	android:singleLine="true"
</EditText>	

Programatically you can use method setHint:

// setHint(CharSequence hint) example
(EditText)findViewById(R.id.myEdit).setHint("My text");
// or int resId as method setHint(int resId) 
EditText myEdit = findViewById(R.id.myEdit);
myEdit.setHint(R.string.app_name);

Hashtable find value by key Java Android basic example.

import java.util.Hashtable;

public class MainClass {
	public static void main(String[] arg) {
		
		// english;germany dictionary
		String[] arrayOfString = { "one;eine", "two;zwei", "three;drei" };

	    Hashtable hashTable = new Hashtable();
	    for(String s: arrayOfString){
	    	String[] array = s.split(";");
	    	String sKey ="", sValue="";
	    	if(array.length > 1){
	    	sKey = array[0]; sValue = array[1];
	    		hashTable.put(sKey, sValue);
	    	}
	    }

       // check if key exists 	    
	   if( hashTable.containsKey("two")){
		System.out.print("two = " + hashTable.get("two"));
	   }
	    
	}
}
/*
two = zwei
 */
