Determinierbare

Determinierbare is a German term formed from determinieren (to determine) with the suffix -bar, which marks capability. The adjective determinierbar describes something that can be determined or established from given data, rules, or conditions. In technical and scientific writing, determinierbar is used to indicate that a quantity, parameter, or outcome can be uniquely identified or calculated within a specified framework. The term is common in contexts where the determinability of a result depends on the available information, the model, or assumptions used.

As a noun, the most reliable form to express the corresponding abstract idea is determinierbarkeit (the determinability). The substantive Determinierbare is relatively rare and tends to appear in specialized texts to refer to a thing or case that can be determined; in everyday usage, determinierbar remains the more standard form, and determinierbarkeit is preferred for discussing a property rather than a concrete item.

Determinierbare is often contrasted with deterministisch, which describes a process or system whose behavior is fixed and pre-determined by initial conditions, independent of randomness. It is also related to terms such as bestimmbar (capable of being specified or determined) and bestimmbarkeit (the ability to determine or specify). In mathematics and the sciences, determinierbarkeit highlights whether a parameter or result can be uniquely inferred from available data or constraints; if not, the object is non-determinierbar under the given framework.

Examples: Die Endgröße ist determinierbar aus den Eingangsdaten; Der Parameter A ist determinierbar, wenn das Modell identifiziert ist. In practice, Fachtexte may substitute determinierbar with präzise bestimmbar oder eindeutig ableitbar, depending on exact meaning.
