Hi,
Please check these sentences and correct them.
1. This is allowed/permitted to only [people, a person] over/above 20.
2. This is permitted to only [people, a person] of 20 or older/higher/above.
3. This is permitted to only [people, a person] of 20 and older/higher/above.
- In this context, 'permitted' is a bit more idiomatic, isn't it?
Thanks a million.
