Brief

Andy Ayrey released “gowith,” a relation-first fork of English (gist.github.com/AndyAyrey/83…) on 2026-06-22, claiming that reorienting language toward relations improved LLM performance on dynamic-system reasoning (quantum topics, relationships, conflict). He links this to linguistic relativity—bilinguals’ differing thought patterns—and encourages readers to test the approach and the provided spec.

Why it matters

Andy Ayrey published a fork of English called “gowith” (gist: gist.github.com/AndyAyrey/83…) on 2026-06-22 that reorders English to be relation-first rather than object-first.

Key details

  • Ayrey reports that in testing this relation-first English made LLMs “weirdly good” at reasoning about dynamic systems—examples cited: quantum phenomena, interpersonal relationships, and conflict—and invites others to try it.
Source evidence

i made a fork of english that is relation-first rather than object-first.

in my testing, it made LLMs weirdly good at reasoning about dynamic systems like quantum stuff, relationships, conflict, etc.

might be nothing, might be something. try it out?

any bilingual knows that different languages let you think different thoughts. but did you know you can use a language model to fork your own language into the mental structures of other cultures?
