[something] is removable / removable [noun]
Dažna klaida:
Learners sometimes say "moveable" when they mean "removable". "Moveable" means you can change the position of something, while "removable" means you can take it off or away from what it is attached to. Also, learners may overuse "can remove" instead of the adjective, saying "The cover can remove" instead of "The cover is removable."

able to be eliminated harmlessly
In science or math, can be taken away or fixed without really changing how the main thing works.
Vartosenos šablonas:
removable [fault/defect/discontinuity/singularity]
Dažna klaida:
Learners may confuse this technical sense with the everyday physical sense and expect a literal, physical object to be removed. In mathematics, a "removable discontinuity" does not mean a piece of the graph is physically taken away; it means the function can be redefined at a point to make it continuous.
Sinonimai
correctable (Stresses that the problem can be fixed; does not always imply that the overall structure stays mathematically equivalent, as "removable" does in formal math.)
|
eliminable (Focuses on the possibility of getting rid of something; less specifically tied to preserving exact structure than "removable" in mathematics.)
Antonimai
essential (In math and related fields, describes a singularity or feature that cannot be removed without changing the function or system in a fundamental way.)

legally subject to removal
Used in law to mean that a person can be legally sent out of a country, or that a crime or situation allows the government to send the person out.
Vartosenos šablonas:
removable [alien/noncitizen/offense]
Dažna klaida:
Learners may assume "removable" here has the same everyday meaning as taking off clothes or parts, but in immigration law it refers to a legal status that allows the government to deport someone. It is also easy to confuse "removable" with "movable" or "portable," which are not used in this legal sense.
Sinonimai
deportable (Very close in meaning; "deportable" is often more common in general discussion, while "removable" is a more formal legal term in some systems.)
Antonimai
non-deportable (Means a person cannot legally be deported, for example because of their legal status or protections.)
