The Maclaurin symmetric mean (MSM) operator has a good aggregation effect. It can capture the relationships between multiple input parameters, and the neutrosophic uncertain linguistic numbers can well represent some indeterminate and incomplete information. In this paper, we combine the MSM operator with the singled-valued neutrosophic uncertain linguistic set and propose some MSM operators based on single-valued neutrosophic uncertain linguistic environment, such as single-valued neutrosophic uncertain linguistic Maclaurin symmetric mean(SVNULMSM) operator and single-valued neutrosophic uncertain linguistic generalized Maclaurin symmetric mean(SVNULGMSM) operator. First of all, according to the neutrosophic set and uncertain linguistic numbers, we propose the single-valued neutrosophic uncertain linguistic numbers and give some operating rules. Furthermore, considering the influence of attribute weight on the results, we introduce the weighted SVNULMSM operator and weighted SVNULGMSM operator. Then, we propose a method to deal with MSDM problems and give the specific steps to solve the problem. Finally, an investment example is used to verify the effectiveness of our method, and the superiority of the method is proved by comparing with other methods.
