Thanks for responding. By inflection, do you mean a set of rules like "ies" --> "y" which in an English dictionary would allow to find "dictionary" when searching for "dictionaries"? Or do you mean brute force enumeration of all forms of a word within the dictionary, so that in this example it would contain both dictionary and dictionaries?

Pocketbook dictionaries allow this kind of substitution rules as part of the dictionary file (called "morphemes").
