'takable' is formed from the verb 'take' and the adjective-forming suffix '-able' (from Latin via Old French), meaning 'capable of being taken.'

'take' originates from Old Norse 'taka', which entered English as 'take' in Middle English; the suffix '-able' comes from Latin 'abilis' via Old French '-able' and was attached to English verbs/adjectives to form adjectives like 'takable'.

Initially, 'take' meant 'to grasp or seize'; combined with '-able', the word's meaning became the descriptive 'able to be taken,' which retains the original sense of being able to be grasped, removed, or obtained.
