private Day [] mDays;

@BindView(android.R.id.list) ListView mListView;
@BindView(android.R.id.empty) TextView mEmptyTextView;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_daily_forecast);
    ButterKnife.bind(this);

   // String[] dayOfWeek = {"Segunda-Feira", "Terça-Feira", "Quarta-Feira","Quinta-Feira",
           // "Sexta-Feira", "Sabado"};

   // ArrayAdapter<String> adapterone = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
           // android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, dayOfWeek);



    Intent intent = getIntent();
    Parcelable [] parcelables = intent.getParcelableArrayExtra(MainActivity.DAILY_FORESCAST);
    mDays = Arrays.copyOf(parcelables, parcelables.length, Day[].class);

    DayAdapter adapter = new DayAdapter(this, mDays);
    mListView.setAdapter(adapter);
    mListView.setEmptyView(mEmptyTextView);
    mListView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adapterView, View view, int position, long id) {
            String dayOfWeek = mDays[position].getDayOfTheWeek();
            String conditions = mDays [position].getSummary();
            String highTemp = mDays [position].getTemperatureMax()+"";
            String message =  String.format("%s a maior temperatura, vai ser %s graus e será %s",
                    dayOfWeek, highTemp, conditions);

You can define multiple strings.xml like the one you have in values.You can make one for italian language, one for french and so on and define a string array containing the days of the week in what language you want.When you install your app on a device the app will look at what language your phone is using and if in your values is an strings.xml defined for that language then the app will use the strings defined there.All the code that contains a string in your app should be defined as a string resourse in strings.xml and used with the name you gave it there
