What does SUABLE mean in Scrabble?
adjective
legal
Open to being taken to court by someone who claims to have been wronged.
Whether a person, company or public body is suable depends on the law of the place, and for centuries a ruler was immune from being sued by ordinary subjects. Today a business is almost always suable for broken contracts, while some government agencies still enjoy limited protection. The word is built from the verb sue plus the ending able, and lawyers use it as a tidy test of whether a claim may go forward.
