'offline-capable' originates from the combination of 'offline' and 'capable', where 'offline' refers to not being connected to the internet, and 'capable' means having the ability to do something.

'offline' and 'capable' were combined in modern English to describe technology that can function without an internet connection.

Initially, 'offline' meant not connected to a network, and 'capable' meant having the ability. Together, they evolved to describe technology that can operate without internet access.
