Morphology

sortable = sort (transparent) = sort + able

Formed productively by adding the suffix '-able' to the verb 'sort', yielding 'able to be sorted'.

Etymology

Sortable comes from the common verb sort ('to arrange into groups') and the ending -able ('can be'), so a sortable list is 'able to be put in order'.
