Hyperinflation is a very specific term that is overused. Hyperinflation is tripple-digit and up, not double-digit.
Double-digit inflation is just “high” inflation.

IIRC money has to be losing half it's value every few weeks in order for there to be “hyper-inflation”.
Zimbabwe's situation — I think — qualifies.
