You need to add "/". Also you should set up for each tier of your url (you can use shorthand (:any) too)

Code:
// If you want more tier in your url, just define another...

// for 4 tier url, like http://domain.com/en/a/b/c/d/foo

$route['(\w{2})/(a|b|c|d)/(a|b|c|d)/(a|b|c|d)/(a|b|c|d)/(:any)'] = "a/b/$1"; 

// for 3 tier url, like http://domain.com/en/a/b/c/foo

$route['(\w{2})/(a|b|c|d)/(a|b|c|d)/(a|b|c|d)/(:any)'] = "a/b/$1"; 

// This will only work for 2 tier url, like http://domain.com/en/a/b/foo

$route['(\w{2})/(a|b|c|d)/(a|b|c|d)/(:any)'] = "a/b/$1";
