Morphology

recognizability = recognizable (transparent) = recognize + able + ity

Built by adding '-ity' to 'recognizable'; the resulting noun denotes the property measured or evaluated, a standard nominalization.

Etymology

The word recognizability comes from recognize with re- 'again' and the ending -ability 'can be', and a helpful way to remember the technical sense is to think of a computer or program that can 'identify' a pattern. So, in computing recognizability means how easily a machine or program can 'identify' something.
