inertia is property of mass possesing body to oppose change in linear relative motion
but moment of inertia is the property of a 'rigid' body to oppose rotatory motion along a given axis of rotation passing through the body or outside it.....

moment of intertia is the tendency of a body to resist angular acceleration...
in layman's language... it can be understand as follows..
| Linear Motion | Circular Motion |
| Linear Velocity (v) | Angular Velocity (ω) |
| Linear Acceleration (a) | Angular Acceleration (α) |
| Linear Displacement (s) |
Angular Displacement (Θ) |
| Mass (m) |
Moment Of Intertia (I) |
in other words.. moment of intertia is the anolgue of mass in circular motion...
