Diagrammable

/ˈdaɪəɡræməbəl/ adjective

Definition

Capable of being represented or illustrated using a diagram.

Etymology

From diagram plus the suffix -able meaning 'capable of being.' This is a modern formation following standard English word-building rules.

Kelly Says

The -able suffix is incredibly productive in English—almost any verb can become '-able' if the meaning makes sense. Some concepts like 'love' become lovable easily, while 'diagrammable' is rarer because not everything deserves a diagram!
