Prohibitive is most commonly used to describe costs or prices that are so extremely high that they effectively prevent people from buying or doing something — 'prohibitive costs,' 'prohibitively expensive.' In a more formal sense, it describes laws or regulations that forbid something — 'prohibitive legislation.' The adverb 'prohibitively' is very frequent — 'prohibitively expensive housing' is a standard phrase in discussions about the British property market.

prohibitive 最常用来形容费用或价格极其高昂，以至于实际上阻止了人们购买或从事某事——'prohibitive costs（令人望而却步的成本）''prohibitively expensive（贵得离谱）'。在更正式的含义中，它指禁止某事的法律或法规——'prohibitive legislation（禁止性立法）'。副词'prohibitively'非常常用——'prohibitively expensive housing（贵得令人望而却步的住房）'是关于英国房地产市场讨论中的标准短语。

Prohibitive se usa con mayor frecuencia para describir costes o precios tan extremadamente altos que impiden en la práctica que la gente compre o haga algo: 'prohibitive costs' (costes prohibitivos), 'prohibitively expensive' (prohibitivamente caro). En un sentido más formal, describe leyes o normativas que prohíben algo: 'prohibitive legislation' (legislación prohibitiva). El adverbio 'prohibitively' es muy frecuente; 'prohibitively expensive housing' (viviendas de precio prohibitivo) es una expresión habitual en los debates sobre el mercado inmobiliario británico.

prohibitive は最も一般的に、購入や活動を事実上妨げるほど極端に高い費用や価格を形容する――「prohibitive costs（法外な費用）」「prohibitively expensive（法外に高価な）」。より格式ばった用法では、何かを禁じる法律や規制を指す――「prohibitive legislation（禁止的立法）」。副詞「prohibitively」は非常に頻出し、「prohibitively expensive housing（法外に高い住宅）」は英国の不動産市場に関する議論での定番表現である。

엄두를 못 낼 정도의(prohibitive)는 비용이나 가격이 극도로 높아 사람들이 사거나 하는 것을 사실상 막는 경우에 가장 흔히 사용된다 — '엄두를 못 낼 비용(prohibitive costs)', '엄청나게 비싼(prohibitively expensive)'. 보다 격식적인 의미에서는 무언가를 금지하는 법률이나 규정을 묘사한다 — '금지 법률(prohibitive legislation)'. 부사 'prohibitively'는 매우 빈번하게 사용되며, '감당할 수 없을 정도로 비싼 주택(prohibitively expensive housing)'은 영국 부동산 시장 논의에서 표준적인 표현이다.
