They both mean the same thing. No idea why we still need 2 words for the same thing, but flammable comes from an older word inflammable.
Inflammable can be misleading because the IN at the begining sometimes causes people to think it means wont catch fire.
Because inflammable is sometimes misleading, gasoline trucks are almost always labelled flammable as not to cause confusion.
