有英文翻译关于进餐礼仪的一段话英国家庭素有“把餐桌当成课堂”的传统：从孩子上餐桌的第一天起，家长就开始对其进行有形或无形的“进餐教育”，目的是帮助孩子养成良好的用餐习惯，学会良好的进餐礼仪，具备各种值得称道的素质或性格。
英国人平时谈吐语言中，“请”与“谢谢”非常普遍，即使家庭中也是如此。
父母子女同桌吃饭时，父亲叫儿子把桌子上那瓶盐、酱油或其他东西拿过来，也得说声：“请把盐拿给我。
”当儿子把父亲所要的东西拿过来后，作父亲的一定要说声：“谢谢”。
夫妻、母女等之间也然。
如若孩子在饭桌上向母亲要一片面包时，说“给我一块面包，”母亲会回答他：“什么，给我一块面包!”孩子得重新说：“请给我一块面包。
”这些生活用语在英国是非常严格的。

2、再昂贵的休闲服,也不能随意穿着上餐厅.
3、吃饭时穿着得体是欧美人的常识.
去高档的餐厅,男士要穿着整洁的上衣和皮鞋;女士要穿套装和有跟的鞋子.
如果指定穿正式服装的话,男士必须打领带.
