Description

### Your use case

#### What would you like to do?
Use the same translation keywords on all plattforms.

Example:
Leaving a Space and don't want to leave spaces and subspaces:
Android: dont_leave_any
IOS: leave_space_only_action
Element Web: Don't leave any rooms
Same thing with different texts (even in english...)

#### Why would you like to do it?
I would like to have the same text on all plattforms. Therefore a user of another plattform can help better.

#### How would you like to achieve it?
Using the Same Keyword.

### Have you considered any alternatives?
At least use the same text for the same use cases...
In the example case i would use
> Don’t leave any rooms and subspaces
