Inflection
Inflection refers to morphological processes with which wordforms express grammatical categories like person, tense, or gender.
Inflections are conceptualized as linking a wordform (via a wordformpart) with the following entities: a stem (of which it is an inflected form), an inflectional value (for which it is inflected).
The multivalued nature of Wordformpart_ID
allows multiple inflectional values expressed in a single morph.
