Let's say you had a nice pool table. And some people were ruining it by putting their small children on top of it and letting them walk around and bang on it.
In American English, you might put a sign on it like, "No children on the pool table" or "No children on the table". In American English, we're usually less formal, but maybe we could write, "Children are not permitted on the pool table."
- What would be idiomatic Russian for this?
- What about for a different kind of gaming table, like Shuffleboard? Would there be one idiomatic Russian sentence that'd be appropriate for both?
I tried Google translate, but I don't know how idiomatic or natural this is:
дети не допускаются на бильярдный стол
Specifically, the crazy problem we have is an adult who puts their toddler on the pool table and lets them slam around on it. Same with the shuffleboard table. So I'm trying to express a prohibition, not on playing pool, but placing your child on it (and letting them walk on it.)
