operability

/ˌɑpɚɹəbˈɪlᵻɾi/ noun

The extent to which a system or device is operable.

Word Origin Operability comes from Latin 'operari' 'to work', from 'opus' 'work'. The breakdown oper+ate+able+ity shows the root oper-, the verb suffix -ate, the ability suffix -able, and the noun suffix -ity. So operability is the quality of being able to be worked or operated. The same root gives us cooperate (work together), opus (a work of art), and operation. The PIE root *h3ep- is about productive effort.
