Манеры за столом очень важны в любом обществе. Это правила поведения во время приема пищи. Они также включают в себя надлежащее использование столовых приборов. Конечно, манеры за столом отличаются в разных культурах. Например, в Китае, если вы хотите еще чаю, вы должны для начала налить его всем остальным, а затем наполнить свою чашку. Европейцы предпочитают держать вилку в левой руке, зубьями вниз. Тем не менее, существуют некоторые правила этикета, которые применимы почти во всех странах. Вот некоторые из них. Кушая суп, невежливо чавкать. Не очень хорошо класть локти на обеденный стол, в особенности, если вы в гостях. Приходить вовремя - это признак хорошего тона, однако в некоторых странах к этому относятся менее строго, чем в других. Большинство основных блюд едят вилкой и ножом, хотя некоторые мясные блюда в определенных странах едят руками. Никому не нравится, когда говорят с набитым ртом полным еды. От этой плохой привычки лучше избавиться. Также, невежливо отпускать плохие комментарии по поводу еды, которой вас угощают. Когда вам накладывают еду, принято говорить Это показывает уважение и признательность. К хорошим манерам также относятся жевать с закрытым ртом и пользоваться салфеткой. Всякий раз, когда вы хотите дотянуться до чего-то, что расположено далеко от вас, лучше попросите кого-нибудь передать. Если вас кто-то пригласил на обед к себе домой или в ресторан, всегда благодарите этого человека и говорите, как вам все понравилось. В мире существует много других правил этикета и манер поведения за столом, но это основные из них.Table manners are very important in any community. They are the rules of conduct during the intake of meals. They also include the appropriate use of utensils. Of course, table manners vary from culture to culture. For example, in China if you want some more tea, you should top everyone else off before you can pour more into your cup. European people prefer holding a fork in their left hand, tines downward. However, there are still some basic rules of etiquette which apply nearly to every country. Here are some of them. It is not polite to slurp when eating a soup. Having your elbows on the dining table is not a good idea, especially if you are someone’s guest. Being on time is a sign of good manners, however in some countries it is less strict than in others. Most main dishes are eaten with fork and knife, although some meat dishes in certain countries are eaten with fingers. Nobody likes when people talk with a stuffed mouth full of food. So, it’s better to get rid of that bad habit. It is also impolite to make rude comments on the food you are treated. Saying thank you when you are served something is habitual. It shows respect and appreciation. Chewing with a closed mouth is also good table manners, as well as using a napkin. Whenever you want to reach something that is placed far from you, better ask someone to pass it. When you are invited by others to dine in their house or restaurant, always thank the host and tell them how much you enjoyed the meal. There are many other rules of etiquette and table manners in the civilized world, but these are some of the basic ones.
