Number 1 is not an option, as the question isn't phrased correctly.
It should be "Is it about time to sleep?" Number 2 isn't quite right, either. B could ask, "Do you want to sleep now?" or "Are you going to sleep now?" There's nothing idiomatic about the phrasing used. "Are you ready to sleep now?" "Are you ready to go to bed now?" "Are you ready to head for bed now?" "Are you sleepy yet/now?" "Are you tired (yet)?" "Are you thinking of sleeping yet?" Idiomatic and slang usages: "Time to hit the hay?" "Time to hit the sack?" "Time to call it a day?" "Ready to turn in?" "You pooped yet?" |
