The action or process of reducing something to or presenting it as a fact.
From fact (Latin factum, 'thing done') + -able + -ing. Emerged in modern English to describe the process of converting information or claims into factual statements.
This word captures something linguists call 'nominalizing' — turning verbs and adjectives into nouns. It's how English constantly births new words by adding suffixes, and factabling shows our obsession with turning any action into a formal process.
