I will tell you some of the most important American rules of table manners. When you sit down to eat, you should place the napkin across your lap. You should never talk with your mouth full and should chew with your mouth closed. If someone asks you a question while you are chewing, you should finish chewing and then swallow(吞咽) the food before answering. You should never drop scraps on the table; instead place them on a spare plate. Salt and pepper(胡椒粉) will be at the table, but you should taste your food before adding any. Only put food on someone else’s plate if they ask for it and if they say they do not want anything else to eat or drink then you will not give them anything else. Do not use your knife or fork to point at others because it is considered rude.

InChinaI know it is rude to point with your chopsticks. It is common practice to place food into a friends bowl and to put drink in their glass even after they have said they do not want any more. It is fine to drop the scraps onto the table. Though salt and pepper are not always on the table, vinegar(醋) and soy sauce(酱油) usually are. Talking while you’re eating is not considered impolite.

Manners are different all over the world and can even change in different parts of a country. Have you ever seen a foreigner do something you thought was impolite? Is there something you have done that they might view as impolite?
