Morphology

tameable = tame (transparent) = tame + able

Direct, regular derivation from the verb 'tame' with productive suffix '-able' meaning 'capable of being ...'.

Etymology

Tameable comes from tame ('to train' or 'to make calm') plus the ending -able ('able to be'). So, if an animal is tameable, it means it can be trained or made calm.
