Root Explanation

Localizability → It is formed from "local" (from Latin "localis", meaning pertaining to a place) and "-izability" (from the suffix "-ize" meaning to make or to become, combined with "-ability" meaning the quality of being able to). The word "localizability" refers to the quality of being able to be made local or specific to a certain place.

Think of something that can be made specific to a 'place' ('local') and has the quality of being able to be made that way ('-izability'). This helps you remember that 'localizability' means the ability to be localized.
