RFV discussion: November 2018[edit]

The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.

Note that, in English, -able may be added to any transitive verb (source: Pocket Oxford Dictionary, printed in 1972). It French, it's exactly the same. Two references:

  • J.-C. Anscombre, D. Leeman, La dérivation des adjectifs en « -ble » : morphologie ou sémantique ?, in Langue française, 1994, volume 103, n° 1, pages 32-44

Do we have guidelines for when the productivity of a word-forming process kicks in as being equivalent to SoP? Note that we have entries like readdressable and reabsorbable – which, by the way, is analyzed as re- +‎ absorbable, but I think reabsorb +‎ -able is more like it.  --Lambiam 06:21, 19 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The guideline is if it's spelled without a space it's includable. DTLHS (talk) 17:49, 20 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Except perhaps for a noun's possessive case, or hyphen-connected attributes.  --Lambiam 08:15, 21 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
