It's not correct to say 'inflation went up'. While inflation was not 0 and prices went up, inflation went down.

How do you define inflation? It went up, but slower.

Prices went up. Inflation is the rate of increase in prices. So slower increase means lower inflation. No increase is 0% inflation, decrease is deflation / negative inflation.
