Etymology of DONABLE

The word "donable" is derived from the verb "donate" and the suffix "-able".

The verb "donate" originated from the Latin word "donare", meaning "to give as a gift" or "to present". In Latin, "donare" is derived from the noun "donum", which signifies "gift" or "present".

The suffix "-able" comes from the Latin suffix "-abilis", which was used to form adjectives meaning "capable of" or "worthy of". This suffix was later borrowed by the English language.

Therefore, by combining the verb "donate" with the suffix "-able", the word "donable" was formed, indicating something that is capable of being donated or can be given as a gift.
