Morphology
demonstrable = demonstrate (transparent) = demonstrate + able
Meaning is directly formed from the verb 'demonstrate' with the productive adjectival suffix '-able' meaning 'able to be'.
Etymology
The word demonstrable comes from the Latin parts de- and monstrare, with monstrare meaning 'to show'. It is the same root as demonstrate, so a demonstrable fact is something you can clearly show or prove.
