Worthy of being lamented or mourned; something that deserves to be wailed about.
Formed from 'bewail' + the suffix '-able' meaning 'capable of being' or 'worthy of.' This follows standard English adjective-formation patterns where '-able' can be added to verbs to create adjectives describing what can or should be done.
This is a rare word that shows how English can theoretically create new adjectives by combining productive word-formation rules—you could make 'bewailable' from 'bewail' even if it's not common in modern usage. It's the kind of word a Romantic poet might invent for emotional effect.
