Legal Definitions - inheritable

Definition: Capable of being inherited.

Examples:

• A house is an inheritable property that can be passed down to future generations.
• John is the only child of his parents, so he is the inheritable heir of their estate.

The term "inheritable" refers to something that can be passed down from one generation to another. In the first example, a house is an inheritable property because it can be inherited by the owner's children or other family members. In the second example, John is the inheritable heir of his parents' estate because he is the only child and therefore entitled to inherit their property.
