1. Electronic devices.
Turn off or silence all electronic devices before entering the restaurant. If you forgot to turn off your cell phone, and it rings, immediately turn it off. Do not answer the call.
電子設備
在你走進餐廳之前，請關閉所有的電子設備，或者調成靜音。如果你忘記關手機，來電話時你要馬上關掉手機，不要去接電話。
2. Seating.
Avoid sitting at the head of a table (where the seats are fewest) unless you are a distinguished guest. Don’t be the first to sit down, and when adjusting your chair, make sure to pick the chair up and move it in gently, rather than pulling it along the ground.
坐位
除非你是對方請來的貴賓，否則不要坐在桌子的最里頭（里面的座位數量比較少）。不要第一個座下，如果你要挪動椅子的話，一定要把椅子搬起來、輕輕地搬動它，不要把它放在地面時推著走。
3. Posture.
When seated, make sure that you are no farther than eight inches away from the table. Your legs should not be extended, so as to respect the personal space of others. Forearms can either be placed on the table or in your lap. Always sit up straight.
姿勢
你坐下以后，要保持你的身體在離桌子8英寸之內的距離。你的腿不要伸出去，這樣是極其不尊重他人的行為。前臂可以放在桌子上也可以放在腿上，要坐直。
4. Before you dig in...
Make sure that all others at the table are seated and served before you begin eating.
開吃之前…
在你開始吃東西之前，要確保其他人都已經就座而且也開始吃了。
5. Silverware.
As a rule of thumb, silverware/utensils should be used in an outside-in order. When finished with a dish, find a place on that dish to neatly set your used utensils. Do not recycle these utensils if there are more arranged for you.
銀質餐具
一般來說，銀質的`餐具(刀叉等)，應該按照從外往里的順序使用。吃完一道菜之后，在那道菜的盤子（或碗）里找個地方整齊地擺放你用過的餐具。如果餐具足夠用時，請不要重復使用一套餐具。
6. Eat, then talk.
A big no-no at formal dinner is talking while eating. Make sure that you finish the food in your mouth before communicating with others.
先吃飯再講話
在正式的餐會上的一大禁忌就是邊吃邊說，你在和別人交談之間一定要先把嘴里的食物咽下去。
7. Being courteous.
Always thank the wait staff and cook (if present at the table) for a job well done. If you need to leave the table, excuse yourself from the group or at least with the peopple sitting next to you.
彬彬有禮
當服務員和廚師出現在你們的餐桌旁時，要感謝他們的優質服務。如果你需要離開餐桌，要跟這一桌的人解釋一下，至少要跟坐在你旁邊的人說一聲。
8. Take your time.
Unless otherwise noted, dinner is not a competition to see who can finish the most food in the shortest amount of time. Pace yourself, and enjoy the company at the table.
不要著急
如果沒有人特別說明，參會不是要比賽誰用最短的時間吃掉最多的食物。所以，你要控制你的進食速度，并且好好享受這個進餐的過程。
9. Be civilized.
Burping, farting, clipping your nails, picking your nose, and spitting are all unacceptable behavior at the dinner table.
文明舉止
打嗝、放屁、剪指甲、挖鼻子和吐痰等所有不文明的舉止都絕對不可以在餐桌上發生。
