I would recommend you to use Spannable:

SpannableStringBuilder mySpanText= new SpannableStringBuilder("Some long sentence");

Define text color for a piece of string(i.e. the word "long"):

mySpanText.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.RED),
                0, mySpanText.length(), 0 );

Assign the text value to your TextView:

TextView myTextView =(TextView) findViewById(R.id.name_tv);

myTextView .setText(mySpanText, BufferType.SPANNABLE);

For more ways and for documentation, look in the links below:

Hi Scott! Please do not use blockquote formatting for things that are not actually quotations. Plain text works just fine here, since the code blocks provide enough separation. If you need separation between blocks of text, you might use a horizontal line (`----`). – Cody Gray Aug 12 '17 at 14:01
Thanks for the suggestion Cody. – HaroldSer Aug 12 '17 at 16:34
