nodded

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'inclined to agree' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'inclined to agree' is the wordplay.
'inclined' becomes 'ded' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'to' means one lot of letters go next to another (I've seen this in other clues).
'agree' becomes 'nod' (I've seen this before).
'ded' put after 'nod' is 'NODDED'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for nodded that I've seen before include "Agreed - dropped off" , "Bent the head in sleepiness" , "Indicated assent or recognition" , "Signalled assent" , "Signified agreement" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
