I assume you mean "prohibit." These means to forbid, to ban; it may involve passing a law that prevents something from happening. Parking your car in a "Handicapped" space is prohibited unless you have a special license plate.

Prohibitive means a price is very high and difficult or impossible to pay. It can also mean a rule or law that restricts or forbids something.

It also means to disallow something. If you are under the age of 21 you are prohibited from going to the casino and gamble.
