The BLE Rule (Major)

This a very interesting rule, you're gonna love it!

....ble

Words in English that have this ending are exactly the same in Spanish!
There are exceptions, come of which we will list further on, but you will find that the very large majority of words in English ending in ...ble are identical in meaning and spelling when translated to Spanish.
You must, of course, observe the quirks in Chapter One.
Here are some Examples

This Rule is accurate approximately 80% of the time, and there are many, many hundreds of words to which this Rule does apply.
There are many additional words in English with this ending that use the prefixes "in.." or "im.." (i.e., Incalculable, Impenetrable, Incompatible, Inhospitable, etc.); these are also identical in Spanish.
One of the peculiarities of the English language is that we tend to invent words rather frequently that more closely express our thoughts. The suffix '....ABLE" is no exception, either. This suffix implies the ability to perform the action of the verb to which it is attached.
For example, if we feel that it is possible to jump over a specific wall, we might describe that wall as being 'JumpABLE", even if the word is not to be found in any dictionary!
If you want to recognize many of the words for which the ...ble Rule does NOT apply, those would be English words that can be preceded by the Prefix "un" (i. e. unpredictable, unrecognizeable, unmoveable, etc.). The Spanish Prefix "in.." is substituted for "un..").

These are some of the more salient words for which this rule does NOT apply:
