inflectionless

/ˌɪnˈfɫɛkʃənləs/ adj

Without inflection.

Word Origin Inflectionless means without inflection. Inflection (or inflection) comes from Latin in- 'in' and flectere 'to bend' — a bending in of the voice or word form. The same root gives us flexible, reflect (bend back), and deflect (bend away). So inflectionless language is unbending, monotone.
