 | | All Indo-European languages, such as English, German, Russian, Spanish, French, and Hindi are inflected to a greater or lesser extent. |
 | | A Basque noun is inflected in 17 different ways for case, times 4 ways for its definiteness and number, and those first 68 forms are just a start, since the case depends on other parts of the sentence, which in turn are inflected for the noun again. |
 | | Although Old English was an inflected language, Modern English is considered a weakly inflected language, since its nouns have only vestiges of inflection (plurals, the pronouns), and its regular verbs have only 2 inflections: Third person singular, and everything else. |
