Capable of being hazarded or risked; something that can be put at risk or exposed to danger.
From 'hazard' (from Old French 'hasard,' possibly from Arabic 'az-zahr' meaning 'dice') plus the suffix '-able' meaning 'capable of being.'
The word 'hazard' originally meant a dice game—games of chance taught people about unpredictability, and that's why we now call any risky situation a 'hazard,' even in chemistry and workplace safety.
