String Names
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

A language pack modifying en_us/American English to give items names matching their ID.

Some notable examples:

For the full list of the over 100 changed names please check the language file.
