If I want to make a card game app or android, could I legally borrow parts of the Apache-2.0-licensed Solitaire-for-Android? Would I be able to charge such a project? (I was unable to understand the legal jargon in the license here.)

yes you can. but you cant do back to them nor can anyone drag them to court if something you sold does not work or has other issues– tgkprogApr 26, 2013 at 0:55

Are you asking if you can change something and sell copies? You can do that for any open source (as defined by the OSI) license, although it works better as a revenue stream with the least restrictive licenses.– David ThornleyApr 26, 2013 at 17:39

It's actually a very simple license, worth reading with due respect. If you can ask the question in English, I'm very sure you can comprehend the license - just try once again, without distractions.
In short, you can (section 3) IF you follow the rules (section 4 through 9). If you don't follow, then you are in violation.
