Root Explanation

Feasibility is formed from "feasible" (from Latin "facere", meaning to do or make) and the suffix "-ity" (meaning the state or quality of). The word "feasibility" refers to the quality of being able to be done or achieved.

Memory Tip

Think of 'doing' or 'making' something ('facere') and the 'state of' that ability ('-ity') — that's why feasibility means the quality of being doable.
