SymLang: Revolution in Human-AI Communication

by George Pashev

Introducing a synthetic language designed for efficient dialogue with artificial intelligence

In an era of explosive development of large language models, where every token has a price (literally and figuratively), I present my solution for optimizing the dialogue between humans and machines — SymLang.

What is SymLang?

SymLang is a symbolic, synthetic, and strictly structured language that replaces verbose natural languages with concentrated symbolic expressions. Instead of using long sentences, SymLang enables communication through universal symbols arranged in a logical sequence, following a strict syntax:

[Subject]  [Object]  [Indirect Object (if any)]  [Time/Logic] [Verb ]

Why did I create SymLang?

• Token efficiency: One symbol can replace an entire word or concept
• Unambiguity: The strict grammatical structure eliminates ambiguities
• Cross-linguistic compatibility: Symbols overcome language barriers
• Machine optimization: The structure is designed for easy machine interpretation

Key elements of the language

SymLang consists of three main categories of symbols:

1. KanGlyphs (semantic symbols)

These symbols express basic concepts and ideas: (love), (mind, consciousness), (life), (justice), and many others.

2. HiGlyphs (functional symbols)

Responsible for grammatical functions, tense, and logical connections: (action completion), (because), (past tense), (negation).

3. KataGlyphs (identity)

Represent pronouns and names: (I), (you), while text inclusions in quotes ("...") allow the introduction of names and specific terms.

Practical application

I am already developing MediGlyph — the first specialized application of SymLang in the field of medicine. It allows quick translation of medical questions into a symbolic format optimized for interaction with AI assistants.

Imagine a doctor in an emergency room who can ask a complex diagnostic question with a few precise symbols, receiving an immediate response from an AI system without wasting valuable seconds on verbose explanations.

Communication example

Standard sentence:

"I analyzed the data and found that the patient has elevated cholesterol levels due to an improper diet."

In SymLang, the same content is expressed as:

         "patient"            

A dramatic reduction in the number of symbols used, isnt it?

Complete Grammar of SymLang (v2.0)

For all those who would like to start experimenting with SymLang, I am sharing the complete grammar and vocabulary of the language:

I. Basic Principles

• Language type: symbolic, synthetic, strictly structured
• Order: Subject Object Verb
• Writing: left to right
• Clause separators: or ~
• Text inserts (KataText): for personal names, foreign words, specific terms
• Country flags: , etc.

II. Grammatical Chain (Sentence Structure)

Standard order:

[Subject]  [Object]  [Indirect Object (if any)]  [Time/Logic] [Verb ]

Rules:

• Each object is marked with
• Temporal and aspectual glyphs (, , , ) are placed before
• Logical connections (, , ) work only between clauses
• Every verb must end with
• For nested actions or thoughts, the same sequence is maintained in each insertion

III. Types of Symbols

KanGlyphs (semantic symbols – content)

Symbol	Meaning
	peace
	balance
	suffering
	love
	wisdom
	mind, consciousness
	life
	change
	meditation
	dream
	soul / freedom
	unity
	mountain
	justice, balance
	protection
	work, functioning
	writing / expression
	vital energy
	inspiration
	strength
	message
	science
	doctrine, tradition
	leadership / nobility
	person, individual
	aggression, fight
	kindness
	humility
	hypocrisy
	lie, deception
	hydrogen energy
	explosion
	nuclear quality
	fear
	mediation
	treachery
	dependency, addiction
	truth
	repeatability / mass production
	growth
	statistics, numbers
	purposefulness
	institution, power structure
	mission, path

HiGlyphs (functional symbols – grammar, time, logic)

Symbol	Meaning
	object marker
	action completion (verb)
	because
	consequence
	if/leads to
	or
	but, despite
	not, without
	successful, completed
	must, necessary
	desire, aspiration
	past tense
	future tense
	continuing state
	present temporary action
	sadness
	compassion, condolence
	service, dedication

KataGlyphs (identity, personal and foreign names)

Symbol	Meaning
	I
	you (singular)
	you (plural)
	he
	she
	it
	we
	they
"..."	text name / term
, etc.	countries

IV. Special Groups

• = Catholicism, Catholic community
• "..." = any foreign or specific term, e.g., "GPT-4", "SymLang", "Almighty Father"

V. Style and Parsing Notes

• Nested actions are possible through a sequence of S–O–V chains within one clause
• The time glyph (, , ) is always before
• is mandatory before each object
• Logical connecting glyphs (, , ) work only between clauses

Conclusion

SymLang is not just another artificial language. It is a bridge between human thinking and machine processing, a tool for optimization in an era when the cost of communication with AI systems is increasingly important.

I believe that in the near future, more and more specialists will discover the benefits of using symbolic languages like SymLang for specialized communication with artificial intelligence.
