losable
Able to be mislaid
Losable describes something capable of being lost.
The word appears most often in contexts where losing matters—games, competitions, arguments: Every election is losable if you don't show up.
It can also apply to physical objects prone to misplacement: Keys are infinitely losable.
Also spelled loseable.
