Signification
Stating one's lack of preparedness for something.
Contexte culturel
Germans value punctuality and preparation. Stating you are not ready is seen as a sign of honesty, provided you have a plan. In Austria, the phrase is often softened with 'noch nicht ganz' (not quite yet) to avoid being too blunt. Swiss German speakers might use 'parat' (from French) in casual speech, but 'bereit' is standard. People in the North are often very direct; 'Ich bin nicht bereit' is accepted without much fluff.
Add 'noch'
Adding 'noch' (still) makes the phrase sound less final and more hopeful.
