Morphology

freezable = freeze (transparent) = freeze + able

Meaning is directly derived from the verb 'freeze' plus the productive suffix '-able', indicating 'able to be frozen'.

Etymology

Freezable comes from the verb freeze and the ending -able, where freeze means 'to turn to ice' and -able means 'can be'. So food that is freezable is 'can be frozen' without losing quality or being damaged.
