How can I add new languages to google's TTS API?

I am trying to use google TTS inside my Android app. Within this part of my code:

    @Override
    public void onInit(int status)
    {
        if(status == TextToSpeech.SUCCESS)
        {
            int result=tts.setLanguage(Locale.);
            if(result==TextToSpeech.LANG_MISSING_DATA || result==TextToSpeech.LANG_NOT_SUPPORTED)
            {
                Log.e("error", "This Language is not supported");
            }
            else{
                ConvertTextToSpeech();
            }
        }
        else
            Log.e("error", "Initilization Failed!");
    }
});

In this line int result=tts.setLanguage(Locale.); I am trying to use Locale.fa_IR But it says Error:(37, 54) error: cannot find symbol variable fa_IR. How can I fix this?

I think I should install something on the emulator, but don't know what, and how?

Use language code from https://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_language_codes.asp.

mLanguage = new Locale(language_codes);

tts = new TextToSpeech(mContext, new TextToSpeech.OnInitListener() {
        @Override
        public void onInit(int status) {
            if (status != TextToSpeech.ERROR) {
                int result = tts.setLanguage(mLanguage);
                if (result == TextToSpeech.LANG_MISSING_DATA || result == TextToSpeech.LANG_NOT_SUPPORTED) {
                    Log.e("Text2SpeechWidget", result + " is not supported");
                }
            }
        }
    });

because Locale.fa_IR is not a language understand by Text To Speech. To Know how many language it supoort. Just do one thing. 

tts.setLanguage(Locale.);

after Locale dot you get multiple option so the only set of language suppoted shown there choose whichever country language you want to support in you application
