Abstract

In this paper I first explain the fuzzy system and its roots in language speakers’ intuition, as claimed by its champions. I then introduce a quasi-formal interpretation of the standard logical system of fuzzy. After that I criticize the theory in two ways: first, I argue that its proponent's responses to the problem of Exact Truth-values are irrelevant or insufficient. Second, I show the theory does not have a uniform solution to the Sorites Paradox; especially the psychological parts of proposed solutions are not persuasive.
