Pend- is a Latin root meaning "hang" that gives us words like pendulum, pendant and pendulous. De- comes from Latin, too. It means "From". DePendAble means you are Able to Hang From something without risk of it letting you down. A dependable person would, likewise, not let you down when you need him.
