Inflective \In*flect"ive\, a.
1. Capable of, or pertaining to, inflection; deflecting; as,
the inflective quality of the air. --Derham.
2. (Gram.) Inflectional; characterized by variation, or
change in form, to mark case, tense, etc.; subject to
inflection.
{Inflective language} (Philol.), a language like the Greek or
Latin, consisting largely of stems with variable
