Foursquare API giving local names

I am using Foursquare's venue explore option to get the city nearest to my user.

https://api.foursquare.com/v2/venues/explore?client_id=client_id&client_secret=client_secret&v=20141215&m=foursquare&ll=70.1234,28.234324&limit=2

When I try the query in POSTMAN i get the country Norway
But when I run it through my terminal I get the Norwegian name Norge

Am I missing something here? How do I get the international name Norway from Foursquare

Solution

  • So giving an extra parameter locale specifying en solved my case.
