✔ 最佳答案
我們用中文答是,是要表達我們同意別人的說話,但英語的習慣不是這樣。
按英語的文法,"Yes" 之後一定是一句 positive sentence, i.e."I am ready." 如果要說 "I am not yet ready.",那是一句 negative sentence, 前面就一定要說"No",否則就前後不一致,犯上 Agreement Mistake。

========================================
You may answer a longer sentence, try this:

1. A: You are not yet ready?
Q: No, can me give me a few seconds?

2.
Q: No, i am sorry.

3.
Q:
No, I need more time to be well-prepared.

答NO 係因為要1表示你未ready。(NO, I am not ready)

將佢譯做中文,
miss:You are not yet ready?(你仲未準備好?)
你答:yes....(準備好.)
所以應該答no,(未準備好)..
