unallowable

/ˌənəˈɫaʊəbəɫ/ adj

For which an allowance may not be claimed

Word Origin Unallowable means 'not allowable.' Allow comes from Latin allocare 'to assign, allot,' literally 'to place to.' So to allow something is to place it in a permitted spot. The root locus 'place' gives us locate, allocate, dislocate, and local. Unallowable is something that can't be placed in the allowed zone.
