In economics, inflation is a sustained increase in the general price level of goods and services in an economy over a period of time.[1] When the price level rises, each unit of currency buys fewer goods and services; consequently, inflation reflects a reduction in the purchasing power per unit of money – a loss of real value in the medium of exchange and unit of account within the economy.

You've got this backwards. Inflation is an increase in the money supply which causes a decrease in the value of the currency (supply and demand). This causes prices to rise (more money is needed to buy the available goods and services because the currency is worth less). https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/inflation
