Backstory
For the last six months, I have been making something known as a conlang, or a constructed language. I call this conlang Sirrian, or Šir-om (Basic information can be found here and here). The language is very roughly based off some real world languages like Mandarin, Kazakh, and Khmer, but when the language is properly pronounced, it sounds more like a West Slavic language like Czech or Polish.

Three months into making this conlang, a conlanger on the fellow subreddit, /r/conlangs, asked if anyone has managed to fully translate Minecraft into their conlang. Some said they have tried and failed. I decided to hop on the bandwagon of this idea and started to translate Minecraft from the root up into my Sirrian conlang. Along the way, I just realised how small my conlang actually was. Before the translating process started, the conlang only had around 800 words in its dictionary. Fast forward to three months later, and the conlang now has 2235 words in its dictionary, but the translation for Minecraft is not complete. (After the last update, the language has changed grammar-wise, so it was a really big pain to find out where all the old grammar rules were and replace them with the new ones.)

How to install and use the language (Windows users only)
1. Download the file below.
2. Right-click and select Extract All.
3. Press Win+R to open up the Run command screen. Type in%appdata%.
4. Go to the folder .minecraft, and open the resourcepacks folder.
5. Drop the extracted folder into there.
6. Launch Minecraft.
7. Click Options..., and then click Resource Packs.
8. In the Available Resource Packs bar, there should be a pack called Sirrian Language. Move the pack to the Selected Resource Packs bar.
7. Click Done, and then click Language....
8. Turn the Force Unicode Font on.
9. Scroll to the near bottom of the list, and a language by the description of Šir-om (Hačærižema) should appear. Click on the language.
10. Enjoy; the language is now in use! (Let's see you try to navigate the GUIs.)
