We propose a generalized inference method for constructing natural language communication. The method is used to obtain fuzzy quantifier Q' when “QA are F isτ ⇒ Q' (m'A) are mF is m''τ” is inferred (Q, Q': fuzzy quantifiers, A: fuzzy subject, m, m', m": modifiers, F: fuzzy predicate, τ: truth qualifier). We show that Q’ is resolved step by step for a non-increasing type (few,...) and a non-decreasing type (most,...).
