Morphology

indexable = index (transparent) = index + able

Formed by the productive suffix '-able' attached to the verb 'index'; the meaning 'able to be indexed' follows standard English derivation.

Etymology

The word indexable comes from index meaning 'pointer' or 'list' and the ending -able meaning 'able to be'. Think of a book index or a search list that points to pages, so indexable means 'able to be included in an index or found by search'.
