Etymology

Pregătit is the past participle of the verb a pregăti, to prepare. The verb combines the prefix pre-, from Latin prae- meaning before, with a root from Old Slavic gotoviti, to make ready. This mix of a Latin prefix and a Slavic root is typical of Romanian, which absorbed many Slavic terms for everyday actions.
