So you choose non-English words that convey the sleep state, for instance "nap" and "slumber" are two alternate words you could have used in English. I really don't think choosing non-native wording is a good excuse for expressing detailed device specification in the UI. The language teams just have to choose two words in a locale and stick to it. I can even add a translation section to the nomenclature page if you like.
