Brit.

/rᵻˌdʌktᵻˈbɪlᵻti/, U.S.

/rəˌdəktəˈbɪlᵻdi/,

/riˌdəktəˈbɪlᵻdi/

Origin: A borrowing from Latin, combined with an English element; probably modelled on a French lexical item. Etymons: Latin reduct- , redūcere , -ibility suffix.

Etymology: < classical Latin reduct-, past participial stem of redūcere reduce v. + -ibility suffix, probably after French réductibilité (1757 in chemistry). Compare post-classical Latin reductibilis reducible (12th cent. in a British source). Compare earlier reducibility n.

= reducibility n.
