Latin itself has both but the four major languages derived from it (French, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese) only have inflections, and no declensions. Examples of modern languages that have both inflections and declensions: Russian (six declensions) and German (four). Of course, a lot of other modern languages have constructs that don't fit in either of these categories (e.g. Japanese). -- Cédric -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
