Abstract
In this paper, we focus our attention on the representation of linguistic negation of nuanced information. The new model presented here parses the standard forms of linguistic negation and defines its nuanced strength with the aid of a compatibility level and tolerance threshold. Their combination allows us to choose the reference frame from which the possible values of a linguistic negation of A appearing in the statement “x is not A” will be extracted. Moreover, a choice strategy computes the intended meaning of each linguistic negation.
