English day format to german day format

Hy!

In the weather app we are setting the days of the week like this 

public String getDayOfTheWeek(){

        SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("EEEE");

        formatter.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone(mTimezone));
        Date dateTime = new Date(mTime * 1000);
        return formatter.format(dateTime);
 }

Is there any way to get the days displayed in german? Like Monday --> Montag and so on!

Found it myself :D

Just add the following to the first line

 SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("EEEE", Locale.GERMAN);
