paraphrasable
Able to restate
Paraphrasable describes something that can be restated in different words while preserving its meaning.
A straightforward argument is easily paraphrasable; poetry or dense philosophy may not be, since their meaning is bound to their exact wording.
The main points are paraphrasable, but the nuances get lost.
