This paper analyses Inflections in Tiv language. The researcher noticed that inflectional morphemes carry different shapes in different environments, this, coupled with the desire to further describe the language motivated this study. The objectives of this study are: Identify inflectional morphemes in Tiv and describe their position, explain their functions in Tiv grammar.
