[aroid-l] what does inflorescence mean?

What does inflorescence mean? It reminds me of something that glows in the
dark, but that can't be right. I know the flower of the A.Titanum is the
largest inflorescence, but does that mean there is another flower that is larger in
the world, because it is not categorized as an inflorescence?
If there is a larger flower than the A. titanum, what is it?
