Morphology

gettable = get (transparent) = get + able

Formed by the productive suffix '-able' on the verb 'get'; meaning 'obtainable' is directly derivable (spelling doubles 't' but does not affect transparency).

Etymology

The word gettable is made from the everyday verb get, which means 'to obtain' or 'to receive', plus the ending -able, which means 'able to be', so gettable simply means 'able to be obtained'.
