Multisets are the nature extension of classical sets. Rough multisets are multisets in rough set context. This note studies rough multisets. We illustrate that Definition 9.1 in [4] is imperfect or irrational via an example. In order to improve this definition, we redefine rough multisets along with a illustrative example. Moreover, we obtain some properties of rough multisets based on new definition. Finally, we give applications of rough multisets.
