Tinder is what you light to start a fire. Scrunched up newspaper, small dry twigs or hay etc. Then the small pieces of thin wood called kindling is put on top, then you light it and when the kindling is burning you slowly add bigger and bigger pieces until you can whack a log on.

Oh my gosh. Tinder is used to aid in the GROWTH of a fire. A lighter actually starts it.
