Comment (by lonvia):

 Nominatim already uses localized keywords to saech for specific types of
 objects (as defined by their tagging), e.g. you can search for
 [http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search.php?q=station+Gare+de+Lyon
 station Gare de Lyon] or
 [http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search.php?q=bahnhof+Gare+de+Lyon
 Bahnhof Gare de Lyon]. The definitions for these keywords are here:
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nominatim/Special_Phrases

 What does not work is a partial translation of a name, i.e. you cannot
 search for 'Lyon station' and expect to find the Gare de Lyon. That's
 intentional because often such an automatic translation produces strange
 things (you wouldn't search for 'Gare Union in Chicago').
