Prohibition is a directive speech act which is performed to stop, prevent or forbid someone from doing something. Happily performance of prohibition requires language users to have both pragmatic and linguistic knowledge to issue prohibition properly and appropriately. However, it has been noticed that most Iraqi EFL university students find difficulty in handling prohibitive utterances. They often produce utterances which do not match with those of native language users. Thus, this paper tends to detect the pragmalinguistic problems those students encounter in making prohibition. An eight-item production test of prohibition is designed and administered to 40 fourth-year students, College of Language, University of Baghdad,with the aim of detecting their pragmalinguistic nonconformity in handling prohibition. The study deduces that the main reason behind students’ letdown is their lack of pragmatic and linguistic knowledge. In addition, the interference of the mother language plays a great role in their unhappy performance.
