Root Explanation

Gettable → It is formed from "get" (from Old English *gietan*, meaning to obtain or receive) and "-able" (meaning capable of). The word "gettable" means capable of being obtained or received.

Memory Tip

Think of 'get' as obtaining something, and '-able' means it can be done. So, gettable means something that can be obtained.
