Strategy for this list

The -ABLE suffix turns verbs into adjectives (READ → READABLE, DRINK → DRINKABLE) and is one of English's most productive endings. Over 800 -ABLE words exist and most are bingo-length or longer. In Scrabble, -ABLE unlocks eight-letter bingos through a single A, B, L or E on the board: DRINKABLE, READABLE, TRAINABLE. The B is worth 3 and the A/L/E are worth 1 each, so a plain -ABLE ending scores 6 before any premiums. Study by verb-plus-suffix and check the doubled-consonant variants (STOPPABLE, BEGABLE) which follow the same rules as -ED past tenses.
