Answer 49 - Be Prepared vs. Prepare (032703)　

"Be prepared" is more of a condition. You are ready for something to happen. "Prepare" means you should start getting ready.

In both cases either word could have been used. However, when you say "be prepared", it gives a sense of more urgency than just saying "prepare"

Does this make any sense? This is kind of difficult to explain.
