Morphology

embraceable = embrace (transparent) = embrace + able

The adjective is formed by the regular suffixation of '-able' to the verb 'embrace', yielding 'able to be embraced' in the sense 'able to be included or accepted'.

Etymology

Embraceable comes from embrace, which breaks into em- 'in' and brace like in bracelet 'arm'. So to embrace is to take something 'in your arms', and embraceable means something that can be 'accepted' or 'included' in a plan.
