foreseeable
Usage Note
Prevedibile is invariable in gender: un esito prevedibile, una risposta prevedibile. It derives from prevedere (to foresee). In informal speech, calling a film or plot prevedibile is a mild criticism meaning 'too obvious'. The opposite is imprevedibile (unpredictable), which is very common in Italian and follows the same gender-invariable pattern.
Examples
"Il finale del film era troppo prevedibile."
Natural Translation
The film's ending was too predictable.
