Morphology

postable = post (transparent) = post + able

Formed by the verb 'post' + productive adjectival suffix '-able', meaning 'capable of being posted', which is directly inferable by learners.

Etymology

Postable comes from the verb post, which means 'to put online' or 'to share publicly' — think of posting a photo on social media — so postable describes something that can be published or shared online.
