As a generalization of fuzzy subsemigroups, the notion of ${\varepsilon}$-generalized fuzzy subsemigroups is introduced, and several properties are investigated. A condition for an ${\varepsilon}$-generalized fuzzy subsemigroup to be a fuzzy subsemigroup is considered. Characterizations of ${\varepsilon}$-generalized fuzzy subsemigroups are established, and we show that the intersection of two ${\varepsilon}$-generalized fuzzy subsemigroups is also an ${\varepsilon}$-generalized fuzzy subsemigroup. A condition for an ${\varepsilon}$-generalized fuzzy subsemigroup to be ${\varepsilon}$-fuzzy idempotent is discussed. Using a given ${\varepsilon}$-generalized fuzzy subsemigroup, a new ${\varepsilon}$-generalized fuzzy subsemigroup is constructed. Finally, the fuzzy extension of an ${\varepsilon}$-generalized fuzzy subsemigroup is considered.
