inflectional
Inflectional refers to a type of linguistic change in the form of a word, indicating aspects such as tense, number, gender, mood, case, or comparison. It involves the use of prefixes, suffixes, infixes, or changes in the word's interior structure to express grammatical relations without changing the basic meaning of the word. Inflectional changes are used in various languages to convey different grammatical categories. For example, in English, changing the verb 'run' to 'ran' to indicate past tense, or 'cat' to 'cats' for indicating plurality, are instances of inflectional changes.
