Capable of being taught or instructed using the catechistic method of questions and answers; able to be systematically instructed in doctrine.
From 'catechize' (to instruct through questions and answers) + '-able' (capable of being). The root traces to Greek 'katechein' (to teach orally).
The word 'catechizable' assumes people can be shaped through systematic Q&A teaching—but modern psychology shows learning is much more complex. The word reflects an optimistic Renaissance belief that knowledge could be standardized and implanted in minds.
