inflections.php was removed in CakePHP 1.3, I took a section from the migration guide 1.3 that should explain:
Loading custom inflections
inflections.php was deleted, it was an unnecessary file, and related functions were reorganized into a method to increase their flexibility. Now you are using
Inflector::rules() to load custom inflections.
Inflector::rules('singular', array(
'rules' => array('/^(bil)er$/i' => '\1', '/^(inflec|contribu)tors$/i' => '\1ta'),
'uninflected' => array('singulars'),
'irregular' => array('spins' => 'spinor')
));
Combines the provided rules in sets of infections, and the added rules take precedence over the basic rules.
