Would it be malliberejo?
How would you say "he was on time out"

sergejm:timeout is tempolimoIs tempolimejo a good word for a time out area?

sudanglo:Alkanadi you need to explain first what a time-out area for kids is, and then we might be able to come up with a suitable translation.It is a chair, step, corner, spot on the carpet, being confined to a room, or having some type of invisible boundary.
What would you call this type of punishment when it is applied to kids?

A vaguer and less judgmental word might be apartejo. Other possibilities: elbarejo, paŭzejo, koleroĉambro, silentigejo, dampejo...
"He was in time-out." Li estis en la paŭtejo. Li estis en punopaŭzo. Li ekskludiĝantis. Li elbariĝantis.
