Etymology of INDISCIPLINABLE

The word indisciplinable is derived from the combination of the prefix in- meaning not, the root word discipline, and the suffix -able, which means capable of.

By adding the prefix in- to discipline, the word indisciplinable is formed, meaning not capable of being disciplined or resistant to discipline.
