conflictive

/kənflˈɪktɪv/ adj

Causing conflict.

Word Origin 'Conflict' comes from Latin 'con-' (together) and 'fligere' (to strike) — literally striking together. 'Conflictive' means tending to cause conflict. The same root gives us 'afflict' (strike against) and 'inflict' (strike upon). The breakdown con+flict+ive shows the prefix, root, and adjective suffix.
