Fuzzy sets theory and fuzzy logic constitute the basis for the linguistic approach. Under this approach, variables can assume linguistic values. Each linguistic value is characterized by a label and a meaning. The label is a sentence of a language. The meaning is a fuzzy subset of a universe of discourse. Models, based on this approach, can be constructed to simulate approximate reasoning. The implementation of these models presents two major problems, namely how to associate a label to an unlabelled fuzzy set on the basis of semantic similarity (linguistic approximation) and how to perform arithmetic operations with fuzzy numbers. For each problem a solution is proposed. Two illustrative applications are discussed.
