Comparisons in Fuzzy Logic Galit W. Sassoon ([year]) uses fuzzy logic for complex sentences and comparisons‚ because they can "associate complex predicates (e.g. negated‚ conjunctive and disjunctive ones) with graded structures (say‚ a mapping of entities to numerical degrees)" (127). She states that‚ in comparisons‚ the difference between the truth values of two different entities must be > 0‚ as in x is more than y‚ or ≥ 0 in sentences like x as y (124-125). The most interesting part of her paper
