Root Explanation

Supposable → It is formed from "supponere" (meaning to place under) and the suffix "-able" (meaning capable of). The word "supposable" means capable of being supposed or assumed.

Memory Tip

Think of something that can be 'placed under' ('supponere') as a basis for assumption — that's why supposable means it can be assumed.
