ResourceBundle getLocale().getDisplayLanguage() returns empty String

I am trying to internationalize my application, and I started practising with the ResourceBundle and Locales with a simple function that creates a ResourceBundle rb with the default Locale of the machine and after it prints the language:

private void loadView() {
    ResourceBundle rb = ResourceBundle.getBundle("languages_"+Locale.getDefault());
    System.out.println("Language: "+rb.getLocale().getDisplayLanguage());
}

I have different resource bundle properties files starting with languages_: Properties files

When I call the function loadView it does not print the language. It prints nothing.

What can be the problem?

Your code should either don't specify locale at all to allow Java to resolve the current one

ResourceBundle rb = ResourceBundle.getBundle("languages");

or use the Locale parameter instead of string concatenation

ResourceBundle rb = ResourceBundle.getBundle("languages", Locale.getDefault());
