The words prohibit and forbid are more synonyms (same) than antonyms (opposite). The word prohibit means that something is not allowed. For example in a non-smoking area, smoking is prohibited. The word forbid means that something/someone is keeping something/someone from doing something. For example, the law forbids a person to drink alchohol under the age of twenty one.
