The aim of this paper is to put forward the 2-tuple linguistic soft set by combining the concepts of 2-tuple linguistic term set and soft set. The traditional set operations and corresponding properties are investigated. We develop the algebraic operations and discuss their corresponding properties based on which we introduce the applications of this theory in solving decision making problems. Four algorithms using the notion of 2-tuple linguistic soft information aggregation function are developed to handle group decision making problem. Finally, a selection problem of investment strategy is shown to illustrate the feasibility and validity of our approach.
