Learner notes
Memory Tip
movable 由 move（移动）+ able（能…的）组成，能移动的就是可动的；把动产想成搬家时能 move 走的家具、车，就记住了。
Context & Register
语域：formal 常见场景：property law、legal contracts、estate inventories 作为名词时指动产，多用于法律、遗嘱、保险等正式文本；日常会话中很少单独使用，通常说 personal property 或 belongings。
Pronunciation & Spelling
只有 removable 与 movable 完全押韵（重读元音及后续音相同）。其他 -able 词只共享非重读的 /əbəl/ 结尾，重读元音不同，因此不押韵。注意 movie 虽以 mov- 开头，但读音是 /ˈmuːvi/，与 movable 发音不同。
