Able to be corrupted or spoiled; capable of being made impure or dishonest.
From 'corrump' (archaic form of corrupt) plus the suffix '-able,' which comes from Latin and means 'capable of being.'
This word reminds us that the Renaissance philosophers worried constantly about what was 'corrumpable'—they believed some materials and even ideas could resist corruption while others couldn't.
