Disguisable

/dɪsˈɡaɪzəbəl/ adjective

Definition

Able to be disguised; capable of being concealed, hidden, or made to appear different.

Etymology

From disguise + -able (suffix meaning 'capable of'). Combines disguise (from Old French desguiser, from des- + guise, 'appearance') with the productivity of the -able suffix.

Kelly Says

Some emotions are 'disguisable'—you can hide anger or sadness—but fear and joy often break through our masks, suggesting that not all feelings are equally concealable.
