In this paper we propose a hybrid method for intuitionistic linguistic decision making and introduce the intuitionistic linguistic hybrid weighted distance (ILHWD) operator. It is a new aggregation that uses a unified model between distance measures and hybrid aggregation operator considering the importance degrees of both the individual distances and the attitudinal character of the decision maker. We study different families of the ILHWD operator. Finally, based on the presented operator, we develop a decision making approach and illustrate it with a numerical example under intuitionistic linguistic environment.
