so are we! ;-) thank you :)
agree Mikhail Kropotov : Kirill, I want *you* to get my agree because the other answerers seem to enjoy being copycats. Doesn't matter that you said "to" the challenge. The idea was clearly expressed here first.

We are prepared for the price reduction test.

All of these versions say it in a slightly different way. Please give us more context or clarify your question so we can help as best we can!

Я обычно стараюсь прояснить текст, если он неполностью ясен. Willing и prepared это делают, хоть и по-разному, а ready оставляет неясность. Так что выбирать, как всегда, аскеру :) Спасибо за полезный комментарий, Сергей!
agree Irene N : вот и меня ready тут никак не устраивает.
14 hrs
Спасибо.
neutral Lyudmila Barr-Hamilton (X) : Sergei Tumanov прав :"готовы" - как ни крути-это"ready" или "prepared"(cогласна с вами, SirReal). Но не "willing". Don't you think?

We are ready for the challenge of price reduction

This is correct.
Peer comment(s):
neutral Mikhail Kropotov : Pardon my tenacity, but wouldn't you agree that combining two of the answers already given does infuse your offering with a slight flavor of borrowedness? +++ Dear Lyudmila, the correction was already pointed out by Jack. Oh, do you prefer "plagiarism" ?
7 mins
There is nothing wrong with a little optimization, I'm not sure if 'borrowedness' is the best term to use!
neutral danya : aye, and the confidence level, too!

Bit cocky, i'm sorry!!!!!
agree R. E. M : In some cases the bits and pieces need to be put together in order to provide the most complete translation. Unless we want to leave it to the asker to deal with fragments from all over the page.
