对于Swift 3.0，下面的代码可以用来回答你的问题:

 let language = Bundle.main.preferredLocalizations.first! as NSString

在Swift 4.2和Xcode 10.1中

let language = NSLocale.preferredLanguages[0]
debugPrint(language)//en

在Swift 5.x中

let langStr = Locale.current.languageCode
debugPrint(langStr ?? "") //en  el

I actually misread the original question, thought it asked for the "app UI" language (that's what I had googled for), not the "device UI", in which case the best answers would be the ones using preferredLocalizations, but those answers still give you a code, there is one more step to get a nice string to display. So, while the "device UI" language is already answered, if you want to display a nice string for which of the UI languages you support is currently in use, obviously the simplest solution is:

NSLocalizedString(@"currentLanguage", @"")

在你的每一个UI本地化中你都指定了你想要的显示方式。例如，在你的。strings文件的en版本中，你会有:

"currentLanguage"="English";

在你的fr版本的.strings文件中，你会有:

"currentLanguage"="Francais";

等。不要混淆代码等，你可以让你自己的字符串很好地匹配你的UI。

我用这个

    NSArray *arr = [NSLocale preferredLanguages];
for (NSString *lan in arr) {
    NSLog(@"%@: %@ %@",lan, [NSLocale canonicalLanguageIdentifierFromString:lan], [[[NSLocale alloc] initWithLocaleIdentifier:lan] displayNameForKey:NSLocaleIdentifier value:lan]);
}

忽略内存泄漏..

结果是

2013-03-02 20:01:57.457 xx[12334:907] zh-Hans: zh-Hans 中文（简体中文）
2013-03-02 20:01:57.460 xx[12334:907] en: en English
2013-03-02 20:01:57.462 xx[12334:907] ja: ja 日本語

@amir在Swift中的回应:

// Get language prefered by user
let langageRegion = NSLocale.preferredLanguages().first!
let languageDic = NSLocale.componentsFromLocaleIdentifier(langageRegion)
let language = languageDic[NSLocaleLanguageCode]

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)
