How to install Java 8 on Ubuntu 19.04 [duplicate]

I upgraded my system to the latest Ubuntu. However, it seems that it's shipped with java 11. I removed it because I need Java 8. However, it seems that Java 8 won't install on my system and I was googling and I stumbled by this: How can I install Jre and jdk 8 on my system?
