Etymology
The word 'recallable' is derived from the verb 'recall', which comes from the Old French word 'recaler', meaning 'to call back'. The prefix 're-' indicates repetition or reversal, while 'call' comes from the Latin 'vocare', meaning 'to call'. The suffix '-able' is used to form adjectives indicating capability or possibility. Therefore, 'recallable' describes something that is capable of being remembered or called back.
