You can force to get geocoding results in chosen locale language by setting argument: preferredLocale: Locale.init(identifier: "en_US").

CLGeocoder().reverseGeocodeLocation(location, preferredLocale: Locale.init(identifier: "en_US"), completionHandler: {(placemarks, error) -> Void in
    print(location)

    if error != nil {
        print("Reverse geocoder failed with error" + error!.localizedDescription)
        return
    }

    if placemarks!.count > 0 {
        let pm = placemarks![0]
        print(pm.administrativeArea!, pm.locality!)
    }
    else {
        print("Problem with the data received from geocoder")
    }
})
