Hi, everyone! Today I am talking about table manners. Table manners are all the 1 we should follow when we are eating with other people.
My parents told me not to put too much food in my mouth, 2 they told me not to put the knife in my mouth or lick it. This is about safety as well as manners. I hate it when people talk with food in their mouths. There is one thing I hate even more. It’s when people 3 about the food they are eating while they are still eating it.
The next important rule is that if you don’t eat something, then you need to tell the host. Don’t wait until you arrive, or everyone might have an 4 time. If you forget to tell the host beforehand, then you need to eat what you are given.
It’s okay if you do not want tea, coffee or another drink that is 5 . But don’t turn your cup over or put your hand over the top. Just tell whoever is serving that you do not want it.
An important rule is that if you cannot 6 something, you should ask for it. So we often have to pass food and plates around. They should be passed around the table to the right. If you are passed something that you do not want, then you should 7 passing it on. Don’t just put it down.
Plates should be taken away only when 8 at the table has finished eating. You should put your knife and fork together pointing up from the bottom of the plate. Then everyone knows you have finished.
Take care not to leave a meal too early. That looks as if you only came for the meal and not the 9 . One thing that happens all too often is that people forget to say “thank you”. Make sure you 10 your host when you leave. Also send a text or an email after the meal. A handwritten thank-you note will show you really have manners!
