individableadj.

Brit.

/ˌɪndᵻˈvʌɪdəbl/, U.S.

/ˌɪndəˈvaɪdəb(ə)l/

Forms: see in- prefix⁴ and dividable adj.

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: in- prefix⁴, dividable adj.

Etymology: < in- prefix⁴ + dividable adj. Compare earlier indivisible adj.

Now rare.

Not capable of being divided; indivisible. The exact sense in quot. 1604 is disputed, but is now usually considered to be ‘observing the Aristotelian unity of place’ (cf. unity n. 9a); alternatively, H. Jenkins in the Arden Shakespeare edition of Hamlet (1982) suggests ‘unclassifiable’.
