Etwas, das man mit den Sinnen oder dem Körper fühlen kann.
The German word "spürbar" is an adjective that means "perceptible," "noticeable," or "tangible." It is derived from the verb "spüren" (to feel, to sense). The suffix -bar turns the verb into an adjective implying something that can be felt or detected.
Similar words:
- fühlbar (detectable by touch)

Differences:
- spürbar focuses on sensory perception, something that can be physically or psychologically felt.
- fühlbar is more physical/tactile, relating strongly to touch.
- merklich and deutlich imply an observable or noticeable effect but can be more abstract or visual, not necessarily sensory.
