Linguistic modifiers, defined by Zadeh in fuzzy logic context, are operators that transform a linguistic term to another linguistic term. Akdag and al. extend linguistic modifiers to symbolic multi-valued logic context, and called them Generalized Symbolic Modifiers. In this paper we propose a study which allows deepening the use of Generalized Symbolic Modifiers in soft computing applications. We focus on symbolic modifiers composition, and we give new properties. Then, we study modifiers order relation, based on a lattice that orders all the defined modifiers according to their parameters. Finally, we illustrate the utilities of our propositions, particularly in approximate reasoning based on linguistic modifiers.
