About

The い-adjective やすい attaches to the stem form of a verb and describes it as "easy to do" or "prone to happening". やすい can be paired with different verbs to describe both physical and mental ease.

〜やすい describes things as having an "easy to do" or "prone to happen" quality to them, but keep in mind that 〜やすい does not describe the speaker's abilities. For instance, a book described as みやすい ("easy to read"), means that the book itself has a "readable" quality to it, not that the speaker is particularly good at reading.
