Root Explanation

Removability → It is formed from "re-" (meaning again or back), "move" (from Latin "movere", meaning to move), and "-ability" (meaning the quality of being able to). The word "removability" refers to the quality of being able to be moved back or again.

Memory Tip

Think of 're-' meaning again, and 'move' meaning to change position — this helps you remember that 'removability' is about the quality of being able to be moved again.
