覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
disallowed は disallow の過去分詞で、形容詞では「規則や判断によって許可されていない」。dis- が allow「許可する」を打ち消し、-ed がその判断を受けた状態を示す。phones are disallowed、a goal was disallowed のように、公的な禁止・無効判定の場面で覚える。
Break disallowed into dis- plus allow plus -ed. Allow means to permit or accept, while dis- reverses that idea; the participial ending -ed presents the thing as having received a negative ruling. Picture phones disallowed during an exam, a goal disallowed after review, or late entries disallowed by contest rules. The word often sounds official and rule-based. Forbidden can suggest a direct command, while disallowed frequently indicates that regulations, an authority, or a formal decision has made something impermissible or invalid. The -ed ending is pronounced /d/.

disallowed の語源・成り立ち Etymology
接頭辞dis-(ラテン語の否定)と、古フランス語「認める」経由のallow(許可する)、過去分詞の-edで構成。「許可する」をdis-が打ち消すため、「公式に認められていない状態」を指す。同根語にallowance(承認・支給額)がある。
Disallowed is the past participle of disallow, formed with the negative or reversing prefix dis-, the verb allow, and the participial ending -ed. Allow entered English through Old French alouer, historically associated with approving, accepting, or assigning something. Adding dis- produced the sense of refusing approval or permission. As an adjective, disallowed describes the resulting state: something has been ruled impermissible or invalid by an authority, procedure, or set of rules.
