prohibition
nounB2Định nghĩa theo từ loại
Danh từ
noun- 1.
(countable, uncountable)An act of prohibiting, forbidding, disallowing, or proscribing something.
By its terms, the Twenty-Second Amendment bars only the election of two-term Presidents, and this prohibition would not prevent someone who had twice been elected President from succeeding to the office after having been elected or appointed Vice President. Broader language providing that no such person "shall be chosen or serve as President . . . or be eligible to hold the office" was rejected in favor of the Twenty-Second Amendment’s ban merely on election.
