Circulable

/ˈsɜːkjʊləbəl/ adjective

Definition

Capable of being circulated or moved from place to place; able to flow or spread through a system.

Etymology

From 'circulate' (from Latin 'circulatus,' past participle of 'circulare') + '-able' (capable of). The root is Latin 'circulus,' circle.

Kelly Says

Blood must be circulable through veins, ideas must be circulable through society, and money must be circulable in an economy—the suffix '-able' makes a dynamic word meaning 'fit for motion through systems!'
