eligible-to receive something

[tortuga721]

hello,

I was looking at various past threads, and I'm trying to find a translation for eligible, "elegible" was recommended, but i wasn't able to find that word in the Spanish dictionary. Is it o.k. to use elegible?

My phrase:

The event you chose is not eligible for that discount.


My attempt:

El evento que eligio no es elegible para ese descuento.


thanks for any thougths or feedback.

Thank you fsabroso. I wasn't sure how asking to a past thread would work. Thanks!!!

I would say:

El evento seleccionado no es elegible para ese descuento.
