The correct word inEnglish for the portuguese word "corrigido"
In Brazil, due to the growing inflation we have to update a value and an index IGPM (monthly general price index).
Could you please inform if there is a specific word in English to use when we have to make some reference to that increase of value every month ?
Thank you
Ursula

Hello Ursula
If I understand your question correctly, you could say that the figures were 'adjusted':
'I have adjusted the figures in the IGPM in line with inflation.'
If you need a noun, you could use 'rise', 'increase', 'increment', 'accretion'.
