Welcome to the forums!
First of all, I recommend you to read the wiki. This contains all information you need about roms, software and more.
Each ROM has a specific language. It is not possible to change the language without flashing another ROM.
This means you have to download another ROM.
You can download an English shipped ROM but I recommend trying one of the cooked roms here available on the Diamond forum.
Hope this helps you.

Firstly you need to flash Hard-SPL OliNex unsigned, which you can find here. Hard_SPL makes your device hardly unbrickable.
After that, take a look at this wiki: Diamond for Beginners
This is very usefull information, which you have to read.
And yes, you can flash a 6.5 rom on your Diamond

Take a look at the thread in which you have posted.
There are many 6.5 Roms available in there.

After a long search I finally found the link in that thread: http://hotfile.com/list/93325/99ab7ab
But do try other ROMs to compare, because IMO this one is not the best.
Good luck!

I was trying this one but directions are not clear.

You need HardSPL 1.93
Copy “diamimg.nbh” to “Internal Storage” (root)
Hold down Volume & Back Button and Soft Reset
Press Power Button to Install ROM
Soft Reset when UPDATE COMPLETE!

Now I copied it and just put it in the internal memory but what volume button,both? with 'back' button and 'soft reset' which is where the small silver pin is, how do you hold all those down at the same time?...lol
