# Sentence case language pack A lightweight resource pack for **Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.11** that converts the default **English (US)** language file from widespread Title Case to consistent, readable **sentence case**. This pack replaces **only** `en_us.json`. No textures, models, sounds, or gameplay mechanics are changed. ## Purpose Minecraft’s default UI capitalizes nearly everything (“Diamond Sword”, “Monster Hunter”), which is visually loud and inconsistent with normal English usage. This pack aims to: - Improve readability - Make UI text feel more natural - Preserve Minecraft’s established terminology and proper nouns - Stay stylistically consistent across the entire game ## What this pack changes Only text capitalization is modified. Specifically: - Item and block names - UI labels, menus, and buttons - Advancement titles and descriptions - Tooltips, subtitles, and system messages No wording, punctuation, or formatting logic is altered. ## Capitalization rules used This pack follows a **strict and consistent rule set**: ### Sentence case - Most strings use sentence case: - “Diamond sword” - “Pause menu” - “Monster hunter” - “Crafting a new look” ### Proper nouns preserved The following always remain capitalized: - **Minecraft**, **Mojang**, **Microsoft** - **Java** (e.g. “Java Virtual Machine”) - **Realm / Realms** - **Snapshot / Snapshots** - **PvP** - **The Nether**, **The End**, **Overworld** - **Ender** (always capitalized) ### Mob names in sentences - **Generic mobs are lowercase** in sentences: - villager, breeze, phantom, zombie, skeleton, etc. - **Boss / titled mobs stay capitalized** everywhere: - **Ender Dragon** - **Wither** - **Elder Guardian** Examples: - “Kill a breeze with a deflected breeze-shot wind charge” - “Follow an eye of Ender” - “Look at the Ender Dragon through a spyglass” ### Items, blocks, and variants - Items and blocks use sentence case: - “Weathered copper golem statue” - “Block of amethyst” - Canonical entity names are lowercased when used adjectivally: - “copper golem statue” (not “Copper Golem statue”) ### Other rules - Difficulty names are lowercase in sentences: - peaceful, easy, normal, hard - Keyboard keys are capitalized: - Enter, Escape, Shift - Acronyms remain uppercase: - TNT, CPU, GPU, ID, GUI ### Creative and artistic content untouched The following are intentionally preserved: - Music disc titles - Artist names - Painting titles - Lore-style proper names ## Compatibility - **Minecraft version:** Java Edition 1.21.11 - **Mod loaders:** Vanilla, Fabric, Forge, NeoForge, Quilt - **Language:** English (US) only - **Conflicts:** None (only replaces `en_us.json`) ## Installation Downloadable on (https://modrinth.com/resourcepack/kris-texts) 1.
