indicable

Indicable refers to something that can be indicated or pointed out. It describes a quality or characteristic that is discernible or capable of being made known. In essence, it is something that can be demonstrated or shown. The term suggests a directness in communication or observation, where the subject in question is not abstract or entirely hidden, but rather available for identification.

The concept of indicable is often used in contrast to things that are abstract, immeasurable, or inherently difficult to perceive. For instance, a physical object is indicable, as it can be pointed to and visually confirmed. Conversely, a deeply personal feeling or a complex philosophical idea might be considered less indicable in a direct, physical sense, although they can be expressed or described through language. The degree to which something is indicable can vary, depending on the context and the means of indication available. It implies a certain degree of accessibility for observation or explanation.
