Table Manners in England (UK) The British generally pay a lot of attention to good table manners.Even young children are expected to eat properly with knife and fork. We eat most of our food with cutlery.The foods we don’t eat with a knife,fork or spoon include sandwiches,crisps,corn on the cob,and fruit. Things you should do: If you cannot eat a certain type of food or have some special needs,tell your host several days before the dinner party. If you are a guest,it is polite to wait until your host starts eating or indicates you should do so.It shows consideration. Always chew and swallow all the food in your mouth before taking more or taking a drink. You may eat chicken and pizza with your fingers if you are at a barbecue,finger buffet or very informal setting.Otherwise always use a knife and fork. Always say thank you when served something.It shows appreciation. When eating rolls,break off a piece of bread before buttering.Eating it whole looks tacky. When eating soup,tip the bowl away from you and scoop the soup up with your spoon. When you have finished eating,and to let others know that you have, place your knife and folk together,with the prongs (tines) on the fork facing upwards,on your plate. In a restaurant,it is normal to pay for your food by putting your money on the plate the bill comes on. Things you should not do: Never lick or put your knife in your mouth. It is impolite to start eating before everyone has been served unless your host says that you don’t need to wait. Never chew with your mouth open.No one wants to see food being chewed or hearing it being chomped on. It is impolite to have your elbows on the table while you are eating. Don’t reach over someone’s plate for something,ask for the item to be passed. Never talk with food in your mouth. It is impolite to put too much food in your mouth. Never use your fingers to push food onto your spoon or fork. It is impolite to slurp your food or eat noisily. Never blow your nose on a napkin (serviette).Napkins are for dabbing your lips and only for that. Never take food from your neighbours plate. Never pick food out of your teeth with your fingernails. Things that are ok to do: It is ok to eat and drink something while walking down the street,unless you want to seem posh. It is ok to pour your own drink when eating with other people,but it is more polite to offer pouring drinks to the people sitting on either side of you. It is ok to put milk and sugar in your tea and coffee or to drink them both without either. I am not used to eating with a knife and fork.What do I need to know? We eat continental style,with fork in the left hand and the knife in the right (or the other way round if you are left handed).At the top of your plate will be a dessert spoon and dessert fork. If you are eating at a formal dinner party,you will come across many knives and forks.Start with the utensils on the outside and work your way inward with each subsequent course How to eat with a knife and fork in England The fork is held in the left hand and the knife in the right. If you have a knife in one hand,it is wrong to have a fork in the other with the prongs (tines) pointed up. Hold your knife with the handle in your palm and your folk in the other hand with the prongs pointing downwards.
对于餐桌礼仪来说，我们要怎么做一个这样的英语演讲呢？下面我就为你带来这样的福音。餐桌礼仪英语演讲 一 Table manners refers to the etiquette(礼仪) used while eating，which may also included how to use the tableware. Different countries have different cultures for table manners. Today I’ll show you the table manners in the east and west. In the east, we use tea-pot, table cloth, plate, chopsticks and so on. For example in China, there are many rules: make the elders have a sit first and the ladies first, before eat meal you should wash your hands, don’t eat too fast or too much, don’t speak with your mouth full of food. When eating, please put up the bowl and when finished you should lay your chopsticks on the bowl. Sometimes the Chinese host put food in others bowl or plate in order to show the guests politely. Korean food have everything that one expects to find, of course, there are also many table manners. When eating the mouth isn’t ma-ki-ng a lot of noise, when finished you need put the chopsticks in the same place. In the west, eat different foods need different tableware, this is the formal table setting. The serving order is starters, soup, main course, dessert and drinks. In the USA, you can’t eat with your hands, but in India you can. Next is can or can’t, wash your hands before meal, knife and spoon are on the right, fork is on the left, so You should use the fork with your left hand and the knife with your right hand. Don’t drink too much and speak too loudly. You can eat only from your plate. Attention: when we are in a party, you have only bowl of soup and must finish all the food on your plate. That’s all, thank you 二 People who go to a formal Western dinner party for the first time may be surprised by table manners in Western culture. Knowing them will help you make a good impression. Having good table manners means knowing,for example,how to use knives and forks,when to drink a toast and how to behave at the table. Beside your napkin you will find a small bread roll and three glasses—one for white wine,one for the red wine,and one for water. There are two pairs of knives and forks on the table,forks on the left and knives in the right of the plate. When you see two spoons,the big one id for the suop and the samll one for the dessert. The knife and fork that are closest to your plate are a litte bit bigger than the ones beside them. When you sit down at the table, you can take your napkin, unfold it and put it on your lap. In Chinese you sometime get a hot,damp cloth to clean your face and face and hands,whinch,however,is nat the custom in Western countries. Dinner start with a small dish, which is often called a starter. Sime people pray before they start eating , and other people may keep silent for a moment. Then you can say“Enjoy your meal“to each other and everybody start eating. For the starter,which you eat with the smaller pair,you keep the knife in your right hand and the fork in your left. After the starter you will get a bowl of soup—but only one boel of soup and never ask for a seconf serving. The next dish is the main course. Many Westerners think the chicken breast with its tender white flesh is the best part of the bird. Some people can use their fingers when they eating chicken or other birds,but never touch beef or other meat in bones. It is polite to finish eating everthing on your plate,so don’t take more food than you need. At table ,you should try to speak quietly and smile a lot,but do not laugh all the time. Most Westerners like soft drink if they will drive home. Many of them drink white or red wine with the food. When drinking to someone’s health,you raise your glasses,but the glasses should not touch. The custom of toasting in some parts of China is to finish the drink at once,but Westerners usually take only a sip. For drinking during a dinner,the best advic is never to drink too much. Table manners change over time. They follow the fashion of the day . Beside,table manners are only important at formal dinner parties. If you’re not sure what to do ,you can always follow your hosts. Although good manners always make you look good,you do not need to worry about all these rules while having dinner with your friends or family，That’s all, thank you 三 中西方餐桌礼仪 TABLE MANNERS 1 入座的礼仪 table etiquette 2 进餐时的礼仪 meal etiquette 3 离席时的礼仪 when asked the etiquette table etiquette ?Make the elders have a sit first 先长者入座,客人依次入座; ? 入座时要从椅子左边进入，入座后不要动筷子，更不要弄 出什么响声来，也不要起身走动;如果有什么事要向主人打 招呼 。 ?

The Differences Between Chinese and Western Table Manners/etiquetteComparison of Chinese and western Table Manners/etiquette table manners UK US n. 餐桌规矩；进餐礼节 table etiquette UK US 餐桌礼仪 manners是常使用复数形式，指非常普通的、连孩子都应掌握的基本的礼仪规范；etiquette则更为讲究，要比manners复杂，常随着形势的变化而改变。Etiquette (来自法语)and manners are synonyms, but do have slightly different meanings.Etiquette is a code of polite conduct based on social acceptance and efficiency. Simply, it means to follow rules for efficiently or politeness. Sometimes, rules of etiquette are archaic (old-fashioned) and don’t make sense nowadays. For example, it is good etiquette to sit with your back straight. It is good etiquette to not chew loudly when at the dinner table. It is good etiquette to dress neatly for a formal occasion. Etiquette may change in different cultures. For example, it could be good etiquette to chew loudly when eating your food (this is just an example, haha). Manners are polite behaviors that reflect an attitude of consideration, kindness and respect for others. For example, saying “please“ and “thank you“ are good manners. Saying “excuse me“ if you need to get someone’s attention instead of shouting rudely is good manners. Not interrupting someone while they are talking is good manners. Good manners are usually universal and don’t change in different cultures. Of course, the main difference on the Chinese dinner table is chopsticks instead of knife and fork, but that’s only superficial. Besides, in decent restaurants, you can always ask for a pair of knife and fork, if you find the chopsticks not helpful enough.tablewareUK US n. (商店用语)餐具 chopsticks UK US n. 筷子 chopstick的复数 The real difference is that in the West, you have your own plate of food, while in China the dishes are placed on the table and everyone shares ,Perhaps it’s one of the things that surprises a Western visitor most is that some of the Chinese hosts like to put food onto the plates of their guests. In formal dinners, there are always “public“ chopsticks and spoons for this purpose, but some hosts may use their own chopsticks. This is a sign of genuine friendship and politeness. It is always polite to eat the food. If you do not eat it, just leave the food in the plate.People in China tend to over-order food, for they will find it embarrassing if all the food is consumed. When you have had enough, just say so. Or you will always overeat!Chinese table manners of families have no intrinsic quality even there are different region and position. No matter three meals a day or guest’s arrival, always bowls with chopsticks, food with soup. There is no rule for how to put the tableware. What people care about more are not the gorgeous tableware but the sumptuous food. People’s dining position reflects the most obvious etiquette of Chinese table manners. In ancient society, men are supreme, and women are not allowed to sit with men on the same table. Although this is modern society, this kind of ancient etiquette still remains. Today in China, the phenomenon that men sit on the table before women can be found everywhere. The master of a family usually sits on the first-class seat. The first-class seat is usually near the interior of a room facing to the door. Once there is a guest, the master will offer the first-class seat to the guest politely. If it is an ordinary meal of family, families should start after the elder. If there is a guest, the master offer the food to the guest is essential from the beginning to the end. And the tradition of urging others to drink is also a special phenomenon.

The largest spoon at your place is the soup spoon. lt will be beside your plate at the right-hand side. 3) The Fish Course If there is a fish course, it will probably follow the soup. There may be a special fork for the fish, or it may be similar to the meat fork. Often it is smaller.4) The Meat CourseThe main Course is usually served by the host himself, especially if it is a fowl or a roast which need to be carved. He will often ask each guest what piece he prefers, and it is quite proper to state your preference as to lean or fat, dark (红肉 )or light (白肉) 。 5) Helping Yourself and Refusing If a servant passes food around, he will pass the dish in at your left hand so that you can conveniently serve yourself with your right hand. Never serve yourself while the dish is on your right; it is then the turn of your neighbor on the right. It is polite to take some of everything that is passed to you. But if there is something you may not like, you may quietly say: No thank you。 6) Various rules and Suggestions Sit up straight on your chair; Do not put much food in your mouth at a time; Drink only when there is no food in your mouth; Try not to get into your mouth anything that will have to be taken out; Do not make any noise when you eat; Do not clean your teeth at the table or anywhere in public, either with your finger or a tooth pick/dental floss , not even with you tongue.

Receiving guests When a guest receives an invitation to someone’s home, it is common but not necessary for the guest to ask, “Could I bring anything?“ If the host declines, the guest should not insist, as this insinuates that the host is unable to provide adequate hospitality, especially for more formal situations . such as dinner parties. Hosts accepting such offers should be clear, but not demanding; if one does not think the guest will be able to provide the correct item, politely decline the offers. It is polite to announce your presence when arriving at an informal occasion, such as a backyard barbecue, or if dropping by unexpectedly, although the latter is a faux pas unless the host has previously indicated that such visits are welcome.Guests wishing to give flowers should consider sending them earlier in the day or the day before a dinner party rather than bring them just as the hostess is busy with last minute dinner preparations. A host might keep a vase handy if he or she suspects that flowers, wile brought by guests. A guest may offer to help a host, and it is more appropriate in more familiar situations. The host should turn down help offered by people he is less familiar with. Judith Martin states: “A good guest offers to help but does not insist if the offer is firmly refused “. A good host never requests help and offers mild resistance if it is wanted, but firm resistance if it is not. General standards These etiquette topics are relevant in both the United States and Canada and pertain no basic interactions in society. It is a understood that these are general rules to which in certain contexts and depending on the expectations of the parties involved, there may be exceptions. Manners in China1)Spitting Out the BonesIn China it is common practice to spit things out on the table or the floor. Often food has small pieces of bone or other inedible parts that need to be removed from the mouth. Using chopsticks, a hand or a tissue is a polite way around the problem.2)Touching Tables Though in the West it is sometimes considered rude to put one’s elbows on the dining table, this is quite acceptable in China, particularly when eating noodles. 3)Noise and Smoking Eating noisily is allowed in China. Slurping, smacking the lips and leaving the mouth open when eating can be viewed as demonstrating enjoyment of the food and a friendly atmosphere in China.Smoking is also permitted in most Chinese restaurants. A way round this, in larger restaurants, is to request a side room you’re your meal, which will have its own door to insulate you from the noise and smoke. 4)Dessert Eating something sweet for dessert is not a Chinese custom. Sweet things can be found hidden among everything else on a Chinese menu. Fruit salads and caramel covered apple are Chinese sweet dishes that are popular with Westerners. 5)Drinking Beer is very popular in China. The other popular alcoholic drink is rice wine. Beware, this can be very strong .In China, drinking alcohol is still mainly a male custom. Male guests are routinely offered alcohol and, cigarettes at meal times. Just politely refuse if you don’t want them. An empty glass is always refilled, no matter about protests is that the guest has had enough, as a mark of politeness or good will often a refusal has to be given three times.

英语介绍中国餐桌礼仪
I believe the Chinese food is famous around the world.中国饮食在世界上是很有名的。
And if you are in China and you are asked by your Chinese friend to a dinner, you may want to know how to pick up your seat at the table and what is the proper way to sit at the table.假如你来到中国，中国朋友请你吃饭，你就需要了解一下有关宴会中的座次问题。
Well, normally this seat is the seat for the host or the hostess.这个位子一般是主位，是主人的.。
The seat is facing the door of this room.这个位子面朝着门。(面朝着门的一般是主位。)
One may also distinguish the seats at the table from the style in which the napkins are folded.也可以根据餐巾的样式来辨别座位。
Regardless of how the napkins are arranged.，the tallest arrangement will always correspond to the master seat.无论餐巾折成什么样式，最高的餐巾对应的座位，一定是主位。
At the small table, a table for four of five, the seat right across of the host seat, the seat over there, the back of which is facing the door is the seat for the main guest.一张坐四五个人的小桌子，与主人的座位相对应的背对着门的那个位置则是被邀请的主客坐的位置。
But usually of course, when it’s a bigger table, a table for ten or twelve, and it is not easy for host or hostess talking with the main guest, right across the table like right across the ocean and they can just sit side by side which can make it easier for them to talk.
当然如果桌子大一点的时候，比如说可以坐十到十二个人的桌子，由于主人和客人说话不太方便，跨越桌子就像跨越一片大海一样，所以他们可以挨着坐，这种情况下是可以挨着坐的，这样坐主人和客人说话更方便一些。
