Surface Forms

duplicability singular

Morphology

duplicability = duplicable (transparent) = duplicate + able + ity

Formed by adding the nominalizing suffix '-ity' to the adjective 'duplicable', producing the quality/state; this is a regular and predictable derivation.

Etymology

Duplicability comes from duplicate, from the part dupli- meaning 'double' and the ending -ability meaning 'ability'. Think of making a second copy or a twin, which is why duplicability means the 'ability' to be copied or made again.
