Comment (by lonvia):

 It's doing that for a certain subset of key/value pairs, see
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nominatim/Special_Phrases. Doing it for
 all key/values in all languages is slightly tricky. The description term
 you see on the website would indeed provide a good hint and is available
 in many languages but it is currently generated independently by the
 website itself, so Nominatim cannot use that.
