Eating habits are different in many countries. The Chinese have a saying, Eat good things for breakfast, eat a big meal for lunch, but eat less at dinner. Many Americans agree that one should start the day with a good breakfast, but their ideas about lunch and dinner are different.

Most Americans only give themselves a short time for lunch. So they eat a small meal. After work they will have more time to eat a big dinner. Also a quiet dinner at home with all the family members talking about their day is a way to rest after a long, hard day of work.

Eating at restaurant is also different. In China, people like to talk and laugh while eating. Very often you can hear people talking and laughing loudly, and they are just having a good time. In America it is not like this. People want a quiet place where they can eat a good meal far away from the noise of the outside world. If some people are talking too loudly, the manager (经理) may come out and ask them to leave.

In Canada and the United States, people enjoy entertaining(请客) at home. They often invites friends for a meal, a party or just for coffee and conversation.

Here are the kinds of things people say when they invite someone to their homes:Would you like to come over for dinner this Saturday night? Hey, were having a party on Friday. Can you come?

To answer an invitation, either say thank you and accept or say you are sorry and give an excuse. Thanks, Id love to. What time would you like me to come? or Oh, sorry. Ive tickets for a movie.

Sometimes, however, people in the west use expressions(语句) that sound like invitation but which are not real invitation. For example, Please come over for a drink sometime. Why not get together for a party sometime? or Why dont you come over and see us sometime soon? They are really polite ways of ending a conversation. They are not real invitations because they dont mention(提到、涉及) a certain time or date. They just show that the person is trying to be friendly. To answer expressions like this, people just say, Sure, that would be great! or OK! Thanks.

So next time when you hear what sounds like an invitation, listen carefully. Is it a real invitation or is the person just being friendly?
