Supporting the Filipino language

Question

I am trying to support filipino in my android app. But when I create a folder named raw-fil, I see a compiler error that the resource folder name is not valid.

Answer 1

There is no ISO 639-1 code for Flipino. Hence, I am not aware that you can write an app that offers Filipino translations, as Android uses ISO 639-1, not ISO 639-2 (where fil would be valid).

Answer 2

Try raw-tl (Tagalog is the filipino language).
