Fineable for Dummies

Alright, so "fineable" is a term that we use when something can be punished by having to pay a fine. Let's break it down a little bit. When you do something wrong or break a rule, sometimes you have to pay money as a way of punishment. This punishment is called a fine. So when we say something is "fineable," it means that there is a possibility or a potential for a fine to be given as a punishment for that action or behavior.

For example, let's say you park your car in a no-parking zone. If you get caught, you might have to pay a fine for it because it's a rule that you broke. So in this case, parking in a no-parking zone is "fineable" because it can be punished by a fine.

Another example is if you don't return a library book on time. The library might charge you a fine for keeping the book longer than you were supposed to. So in this case, not returning the book on time is also "fineable" because you can be punished by having to pay a fine.

So, when we use the word "fineable," we're talking about something that can lead to being penalized with a fine as a punishment. It's basically a way to keep people following rules and behaving properly. Does that make sense?
