The use of the semantics of fuzzy sets helps smoothing the crisp character (small and medium intersect with each other), and formulas are found to compute the conclusion in the generalized modus ponens. In general a fuzzy set resulted from the computation does not correspond to a linguistic value; this is to be expected if minding the lack of information at the level of crisp sets.
