Just Bookcases

This language pack offers a radically new approach to naming bookshelves in Minecraft, fixing some logical inconsistencies that might seem controversial to attentive players.

If you think about it, why should a functional book storage block be called just "Chiseled Bookshelf" while decorative shelves continue to occupy a dominant position? A new, fully functional item appears, but its name makes it seem like just a variation of the old block.

Solving this aesthetic problem is quite simple and elegant: chiseled bookshelves get the name Bookcase, reflecting their important functional purpose, while traditional bookshelves are renamed to Book-Patterned Planks, which better describes their decorative nature.

Language Support

The pack is fully adapted for all English game dialects:

• Main versions: en_us, en_au, en_ca, en_gb, en_nz
• Alternative variants:
  • en_ud (upside down) - matches the original
  • en_pt (pirate) - Bookcase becomes Stack o' knowledge, and Book-Patterned Planks turn into Planks o' no knowledge
  • enp (Anglish without loanwords) - Bookcase becomes Book Cupboard, and old shelves become Book-Mustered Boards
  • enws (Shakespearean) - Bookcase name remains unchanged, while decorative blocks become Book-Patterned Timber

This pack also pairs perfectly with modifications related to book storage systems and gameplay mechanic enhancements.
