modifiable

/mˈɑdɪfˌaɪəbəl/ adj

Capable of being modified; subject to modification.

Word Origin 'Modify' combines Latin 'modus' (measure) and 'facere' (to make) — literally 'to make according to measure,' to adjust. Modifiable means able to be modified. The root 'modus' gives us mode, model, moderate, and accommodate (make fit). 'Facere' is one of the most prolific roots: fact, factory, affect, perfect, etc. The PIE root *med- (measure) also gives us 'medical' (originally 'healing measure') and 'meditate.'
