Morphology

groupable = group (transparent) = group + able

Formed by adding the productive suffix '-able' to the verb 'group', so the meaning 'able to be grouped' is directly derivable.

Etymology

Groupable is just group + -able. Group means a collection and -able means 'can', so groupable means something that 'can be put into groups' for easier use.
