Definition
Capable of being chastised or punished; deserving of correction or discipline.
Etymology
From 'chastise' plus the suffix '-able,' creating an adjective describing something that can or should be subjected to chastisement. This formation follows standard English word-building patterns.
Kelly Says
The suffix '-able' is one of English's most powerful—adding it to almost any verb lets you describe whether something can happen ('sustainable,' 'changeable,' 'breakable'), making it incredibly useful for expressing possibility.
