I use Google Maps API to get city name in 2 different languages by users' coordinates. Before version 3.5 of the API I was able to use language option in geocoder's request, but since June 8, 2011 this option is removed.
Can someone give me any idea how can I get the city name in two or more different languages with maps' geocoder?
I included the js script with language option something like this - http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&language=ja

Geocoding is the process of converting addresses (like "1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA") into geographic coordinates (like latitude 37.423021 and longitude -122.083739), which you can use to place markers or position the map.

It seems that the feature has been removed:
We made this change to simplify the API. The Geocoder uses the browser's preferred language, or language specified when loading the API" (Source)
It still work if used directly:
