practicable
Able to work
Practicable means capable of being done or put into practice.
A practicable plan is one that can actually be carried out, not merely theorized about: We need a practicable solution, not just good intentions.
The word emphasizes feasibility—whether something can work in the real world.
Often confused with practical, which emphasizes usefulness or common sense rather than mere possibility.
