Morphology

committable = commit (semi-transparent) = commit + able

Morphologically clear as 'commit' + '-able', but the computing/transaction sense of 'commit' ('make permanent') is domain-specific and may not be inferable by a general B1 learner.

Etymology

Committable comes from commit, from Latin com- 'with' and mittere 'to send', the same root you see in mission and admit. In computing, to commit is to 'send' changes into the final version, so something committable is 'able to be made permanent'.
