Todo está listo. Todos están listos.

Question

In my book, there´s a sentence, without context.

Todo está listo. Ya podemos comer.

I wonder if Todos están listos. Ya podemos comer. If this is correct also or no?

Answer 1

Well they're probably talking about the food being ready, todo está listo - everything is ready. If you wanted to talk about everyone being ready I guess you could say todos están listoS - but to me the first option fits better.

Answer 2

So, Todo está listo. means Everything is ready?

Todos están listo, means everyone is ready?

Is that right?

You keep missing the adjective agreement. - 0074b507, Nov 22, 2011

if you use todos (plural) están (plural) then you also need to use listoS (plural) as I mentioned in my post above - other than that yes, that's what those two sentences mean - Kiwi-Girl, Nov 22, 2011

I see, thanks. Todos están listos. - zhmelissa, Nov 22, 2011

but remember that will mean 'everone is ready' not 'everything' (as in the food) is ready - Kiwi-Girl, Nov 22, 2011

Gracias. I get it! :) - zhmelissa, Nov 22, 2011
