用法筆記

More formal than 'livable' and less common than 'habitable'. Often used when a place's condition has changed — after repairs it becomes inhabitable, or after damage it is no longer inhabitable.

常見錯誤

The apartment is inhabitable' (when meaning it is NOT livable).
The apartment is uninhabitable.
'inhabitable' means you CAN live there; the prefix 'in-' comes from Latin 'in-' meaning 'in/into', not the negative prefix 'un-'.
