简单Swift 3功能:

@discardableResult
func getLanguageISO() -> String {
    let locale = Locale.current
    guard let languageCode = locale.languageCode,
          let regionCode = locale.regionCode else {
        return "de_DE"
    }
    return languageCode + "_" + regionCode
}

根据苹果文档

NSUserDefaults* defs = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
NSArray* languages = [defs objectForKey:@"AppleLanguages"];
NSString* preferredLang = [languages objectAtIndex:0];

简单Swift 3功能:

@discardableResult
func getLanguageISO() -> String {
    let locale = Locale.current
    guard let languageCode = locale.languageCode,
          let regionCode = locale.regionCode else {
        return "de_DE"
    }
    return languageCode + "_" + regionCode
}

SWIFT-4

 // To get device default selected language. It will print like short name of zone. For english, en or spain, es.

let language = Bundle.main.preferredLocalizations.first! as NSString
print("device language",language)

迅速:

let languageCode = NSLocale.currentLocale().objectForKey(NSLocaleLanguageCode) as? String

Swift 4的更新答案

let language = Bundle.main.preferredLocalizations.first
