Significado
Preparing oneself for something.
Contexto cultural
Getting ready for a wedding is a multi-hour process involving 'Uptan' (turmeric paste) and heavy jewelry. It is a social event in itself. Before the Friday prayer (Jummah), Muslims are encouraged to get 'Tayyar' by bathing, wearing clean clothes, and applying perfume (Attar). In Urdu culture, saying 'Khana tayyar hai' is the ultimate signal of welcome. Even if the guest is late, the food is kept 'ready' on a heater. The hashtag #TayyarHona is popular on Instagram for 'Get Ready With Me' videos among Urdu speakers.
The 'Hona' Rule
Remember that 'hona' changes for gender and number, but 'Tayyar' stays the same. 'Larka tayyar hai' vs 'Larki tayyar hai'.
Don't say 'Ready hona'
While people understand 'Ready hona', using 'Tayyar hona' makes you sound much more like a native speaker.
