  1. inflectional ending

    An inflectional ending is a suffix added to a word to convey a particular grammatical meaning, such as tense, mood, number, gender, or case. It allows a word to adapt to different syntactic roles in a sentence without changing its fundamental meaning. This is common in languages like English, Spanish, German, and many others. For example, in English, adding the inflectional ending "-s" to a noun makes it plural, while adding "-ed" to a verb places it in the past tense.
