comprehendible

/kˌɑmpɹihˈɛndᵻbəl/ adj

Comprehensible, understandable; able to be comprehended.

Word Origin Comprehendible is from comprehend, which combines Latin com- 'together' and prehendere 'to seize, grasp' — literally 'to grasp together.' The breakdown com+prehend+ible shows the root prehend (grasp) and the suffix -ible 'able to be.' So comprehendible means 'able to be grasped mentally.' The same prehendere root gives us apprehend, reprehensible, and enterprise (from 'grasping between').
