Etymology
Treasurable comes from the familiar word treasure and the ending -able. Treasure goes back to an old Greek word thēsauros meaning 'store' or 'valuable thing' and you can see the same root in treasury, while -able means 'can be' or 'worthy of', so treasurable means something worth keeping and loving like a treasure.
