instructableadj.

Brit. /ɪnˈstrʌktᵻbl/, U.S. /ᵻnˈstrəktəb(ə)l/
Origin: A borrowing from Latin, combined with an English element; originally modelled on a French lexical item. Etymons: Latin instruct- , instruere , -able suffix.
Etymology: < classical Latin instruct-, past participial stem of instruere instruct v. + -able suffix, originally after Middle French, French instruisable (a1603 in the passage translated in quot. 1603).The following quot. is more likely to show a typographical error for inscrutable adj. than an earlier example of this word:1581 B. Rich Don Simonides I. sig. Q.iv These eyes should haue behelde no earthly pleasures, but heauenly and diuine essence, an instructable power, vnserchable, still prouident.
That may be instructed; amenable to instruction; esp. teachable; = instructible adj.
