forbid(den)
1.forbid比prohibit通俗。它的宾语后面接不定式。例如：His health forbids him to go. 不可接from和动名词，如不可说His health forbids him from going。prohibit后面接from和动名词参见prohibit。
2.forbid后面接动名词，不接不定式。如可以说The regulations forbid walking on the grass，不可说The regulations forbid to walk on the grass。
3.forbid有时有双宾语，如He forbids them tobacco（他禁止他们抽烟）和She forbids him her house（她不许他到她的家里）。He forbids them tobacco假使改作被动语态当然是They are forbidden tobacco或Tobacco is forbidden them。但Tobacco is forbidden them似乎不及Tobacco is forbidden to them普通。
4.forbid不用作祈使语气，如不可说Forbid the children to enter the room。该改作Tell the children not to enter the room。
5.Forbidden City（紫禁城）前面有the。
