ban (Often implies a wider or longer exclusion, not just removal from one event.) | exclude (More general; may not imply a rule violation.) | eliminate (Can be due to performance rather than rule-breaking.)

類義語

to make something not usable or acceptable

用法パターン: disqualify [something] (as [something]) / disqualify [something] from [purpose/use]
