Cultural Tip
In French, adjectives that describe a state (like *prêt*) follow the noun and must match its gender and number. Remember that *sac* is masculine, so you say *mon sac* and *prêt*, not *ma sac* or *prête*. Also, *prêt* can be used with people (*être prêt à partir* – “to be ready to leave”) and objects alike.
