    you don’t need 2 folders inside values. In values you keep your strings.xml file (from here it will take the strings for english) and you create another folder, inside res/ called values-de where you will create a copy of the strings.xml file and just translate the content. The android system will choose the right content, depending on the language used on the phone.
