What's the difference between drainable and trainable?
Drainable
Definition:
(a.) Capable of being drained.
Example Sentences:

(14) Once this diagnosis is suspected, therapy with an antibiotic that provides coverage against streptococci and anaerobes should be initiated promptly, and a drainable focus of infection should be excluded.
Trainable
Definition:
(a.) Capable of being trained or educated; as, boys trainable to virtue.
Example Sentences:
(1) The personnel selected for a dosing service need not have advanced pharmacy degrees but must be highly trainable.
(2) Finally, she says: “I’m un-media-trainable.” Recently, Gould found herself giving advice to a friend whose insecurities resembled her own.
(3) The purpose of the present study was to determine whether the fast-twitch (FT) fiber composition in muscle was a) correlated with performance capacities, b) related to the trainability of the subjects, and c) whether the FT fiber composition could be predicted with standard laboratory tests.
(4) Further evaluations should be carried out to discover to what degree scoliotic patients are trainable without increasing the danger of pulmonary vascular obstruction.
(5) Behaviour patterns such as temperament, aggressiveness, and nervousness showed relatively high h2-values; other behaviours like trainability, emotionality, and pre-laying showed relatively low values.
(6) Forty trainable and 40 educable retarded adolescents were shown slides containing arrays of 2, 3, 4, or 5 chromatic pictures to be recalled after varying periods (0, 18, 36, and 140 sec) of filled or unfilled activity.
(7) Experiments involving chronic introduction of ethanol (36 per cent of caloric value) as a part of a specially devised liquid ration demonstrated the trainability of rats to sharply decrease, their antistress resistance to significantly decline, especially in rats kept on a low-protein diet.
(8) The trainability of endurance seems to depend on the biological maturity level of growing children.
(9) Existing literature also does not clearly support a relationship between training intensity and the degree of cardiac enlargement, or changes in the heart's trainability with age.
(10) During the most stressful training weeks of prolonged strength training the level of biologically active unbound testosterone as well as the balance between the androgenic-anabolic activity and the catabolizing effect of glucocorticoids may be of great importance for the trainability of muscular strength.
(11) These observations together with the findings about the specific effects of heavy resistance strength and power training on the neuromuscular performance may also have some implications for the more accurate determination of the trainability status of an individual athlete at a given time in order to optimize the training process.
(12) It is shown that, using online real-time analysis, differences in the AR time-series parameters can be observed for different trainable patterns of muscle activation, at the same electrode location, even at the same ME power levels, as long as considerable cross-talk exists at the electrode site.
(13) The results indicate that visual field increases are not trainable.
(14) It can be concluded that in training for fast force production considerable neural and selective muscular adaptations may occur to explain the improvement in performance, but that genetic factors may determine the ultimate potential of the trainability of this aspect of the neuromuscular performance.
(15) Trainable retarded subjects had fewer hypotheses, and initially chose position hypotheses predominantly.
(16) Even fewer results are available on the trainability of anaerobic capacity.
