Date and time in different languages

I want my app to show the German version if the phone language is German, and the English version if the phone language is English.

There is this Predefined Formats, but for the German version I don't like it.

How can I handle this? 

private fun getTime(currentTime:Long): String{
    val sdf = SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm")
    val calendar = Calendar.getInstance()
    calendar.timeInMillis = currentTime
    val str = sdf.format(calendar.time)
    return str
}

private fun getDate(currentTime:Long):String{
    val myDate = Date()
    val actualDate = myDate.time.plus(currentTime)
    val myString = DateFormat.getDateInstance().format(actualDate)
    return myString
}

Try using this constructor:

public SimpleDateFormat(String pattern, Locale locale)
