意思
To cook or get food ready for eating.
文化背景
The 'Abendbrot' tradition means 'preparing a meal' often involves no cooking, just arranging bread, cheese, and meats. In Austria, you might hear 'das Essen richten' instead of 'vorbereiten'. It sounds more regional and charming. Swiss German speakers might use 'rüschte' for preparing vegetables, but in High German, 'vorbereiten' is standard. The English term 'Meal Prep' is very common among young professionals, though they still use 'vorbereiten' to describe the action.
The 'Vor' Rule
Always remember to kick the 'vor' to the end of the sentence. It's the most common mistake for learners.
Abendbrot
If someone invites you to 'prepare a meal' in the evening, don't be surprised if no stove is involved!
