You don't declare on someone else's turn; you declare on your own turn, and you get triggered on some other turn.Say Fred the Fighter is in combat with Mike the Monk. Fred rolled high on initiative and goes at 19; Mike goes at 10. (There are a bunch of other combatants too, who go at other numbers, but they're not important right now.)We pick up the story in the middle of the fight, in round 4, and Fred is sick of trying to chase Mike around the battlefield. So on Fred's action (count 19), Fred declares a Ready action, to make an attack when Mike comes within reach.On Mike's turn (count 10), Mike uses Spring Attack to move in and attack. When he comes within reach of Fred, this triggers Fred's readied action, so Fred takes his single attack. Mike then finishes his Spring Attack action, by taking one attack and moving away.In the next round, both characters act on count 10, but Fred goes first.</blockquote>
