- 1Plural of inclusion.

Note
The plural belongs to the countable things an inclusion can be: an item added to a list or total, a foreign body trapped in a material, a stainable aggregate in a cell, an object lodged in tissue. The act of including is uncountable and takes no plural. A policy can promote inclusion, but what it adds are inclusions. In precious stones, inclusions are the trapped materials counted as defects.
