absetzbare

Absetzbare is a form of the German adjective absetzbar, used to describe something that can be removed, detached, or withdrawn. As a attributive adjective, absetzbare appears before a noun and is declined for gender, number, and case. Its meaning can range from physically detachable parts to items or costs that can be set apart or deducted in certain contexts.

Grammatical usage and examples:

- Feminine singular: eine absetzbare Schraube (a detachable screw)

- Neuter singular with definite article: das absetzbare Teil (the detachable part)

- Plural: absetzbare Teile (detachable parts)

- Plural with definite article: die absetzbaren Teile (the detachable parts)

The form changes in other contexts, for example ein absetzbares Teil (a detachable part) or die absetzbare Komponente (the detachable component).

Etymology and related terms:

The word combines ab- (away, off) with setzen and the suffix -bar, which forms adjectives meaning “capable of.” Absetzbar thus literally means “able to be set away/removed.” Absetzbare is one inflected form used in gender- and number-appropriate contexts.

Usage notes:

In technical fields such as engineering or product design, absetzbar is commonly used to denote removable components. In financial or tax language, more standard terms such as abzugsfähig (tax-deductible) are typical, though absetzbar can appear in some varieties of German to express a similar idea of removability or deductibility in broader senses.
