Morphology

judgeable = judge (transparent) = judge + able

Productive adjective formation from the verb 'judge' with the suffix '-able', meaning 'capable of being judged'; orthographic retention of the final 'e' does not affect meaning.

Etymology

Judgeable comes from the verb judge and the ending -able, which means 'can be done'. So, judgeable describes something you 'can judge' or decide about.
