niedozwolone

Niedozwolone is a Polish adjective meaning not allowed or prohibited. It describes actions, conditions, or items that are not permitted by law, regulation, policy, or rule. The term is formed from the negation prefix nie- attached to dozwolone (permitted), and the neuter form niedozwolone is commonly used with neuter nouns such as działanie, zachowanie, treść, or regulamin.

In everyday language, niedozwolone is used to label prohibited activities and to describe rules in schools, workplaces, public institutions, and consumer settings. It appears in policies, notices, and warnings to indicate that certain conduct or items are forbidden. In legal and administrative contexts, it can appear in lists of czynności niedozwolone or inne niedozwolone zachowania within statutes or regulations, though more formal terms like zabronione or zakazane may be used depending on context.

In information technology and the internet, niedozwolone is common in user interfaces and error messages. A typical example is 403 Niedozwolone in Polish-language web servers, indicating that the server understood the request but refuses to authorize access.

Niedozwolone is closely related to but distinct from synonyms such as zabronione (explicitly prohibited) and zakazane (forbidden in a broader sense). It carries a formal, rule-based nuance and is widely used in official or technical language. See also: dozwolenie, zabronione, zakazane.
