Etymology: "Unboxable" is a plain formation with no hidden story: it combines the prefix "un-", meaning "not" or "the reverse of," with "boxable," which itself comes from "box" plus the suffix "-able," meaning "capable of being." Formed this way, it describes something that can be taken out of its box, and the adjective's meaning follows directly from those parts. The source also gives a second route, "unbox" plus "-able," which produces the same result by attaching the suffix to the verb "unbox" instead of to "box." Either way, the word is a transparent modern coinage built from familiar English elements.
