Adding FR language to Android App not possible

Question

When trying to add French to my app, when building it crashes on this:

Caused by: com.android.aaptcompiler.ResourceCompilationException: Failed to compile values resource file C:\Users\Me\AndroidStudioProjects\devapp\app\build\intermediates\incremental\debug\mergeDebugResources\merged.dir\values-fr\values-fr.xml

But English and Spanish are working just fine using the same method as French. I'm using the strings.xml translations editor for the language support. I did find out that It might be the ' in the text. I tried doing \' or ' but this didn't help it either.

Alright found the issue, I also had to use the \ before a !. And the ' doesn't work anymore and I replaced all of them with \' — mohammed_sajid, Mar 10 '23 at 09:19
