Abstract
As China and western countries are influenced by different cultural, social and historical background, so there are many differences between Chinese and western table manners. Table manners are parts of culture, and different table manners are also very important parts of the different cultural background between China and western countries. Each family or group sets its own standards for how strictly these rules are to be enforced. Each country, region and nation is unconsciously showing its own profound cultural background. Through the comparisons of the different attending time, the different seats arrangement, the different tableware, the different dining manners, the different dining atmosphere, the different dining utterance, the use of mobile phones, the drinking of liquor and the different histories on diets between Chinese and western table manners, people can understand the different culture between China and western countries more, besides, people can treat and respect other countries’ culture much more objectively and understandingly while they adhere to their own outstanding culture and traditions. The best example is that more and more Chinese people can use forks and knives well when they have dinner in steakhouses, and many western people also can use chopsticks to have Chinese food. In this paper, the author makes comparisons on these aspects of different table manners between China and western countries to show how to have dinner correctly and to know other countries’ table manners better.
Key words: table manners; culture; differences
