expressible
Able to state
Expressible describes something capable of being expressed or conveyed.
An idea is expressible if it can be put into words; a quantity is expressible if it can be represented numerically: The ratio is expressible as a simple fraction.
The negative inexpressible suggests something beyond articulation—feelings too profound for language.
