We consulted the UK's leading expert and consultant in etiquette andprotocol, William Hanson, over one very fine afternoon tea to find out we'reholding our tea cups all wrong, there are rules to napkin sizes, and whydessert is NOT the sweet course that follows dinner。
我們一邊喝著下午茶，一邊就禮儀問題咨詢了英國的頂級專家和顧問威廉-漢森，結果發現我們拿杯子的方式都錯了。還有很多規矩，如餐巾的尺寸以及dessert不是晚餐正餐后甜點的原因。
Table posture坐姿
Your backshould never touch the chair. One must sit straight and bring the food to yourmouth. No matter how crumbly the pastry is, never lean down to the dish. Theonly exception is when you drink soup – you can gently bow your head ever so slightly。
后背不要碰到椅子上。必須坐直，把食物送入嘴中。無論糕點多么松脆易碎，也不要低頭在盤子里吃。唯一的例外是喝湯的時候——這時你可以輕輕地低下頭。
Napkin maths餐巾的尺寸
There aresizes you know. Use a 17-20 inch napkin for lunch, a 12 inch napkin for tea, a26 inch napkin for dinner and a 6-9 inch napkin for cocktails。
餐巾有很多尺寸。午飯時用17-20英寸的餐巾，下午茶時用12英寸的餐巾，晚飯時用26英寸的餐巾，雞尾酒會上用6-9英寸的餐巾。
Consumption pace吃飯的節奏
Loo breaksare unfortunately not an option. Most dinners will last an average of 2 hoursso you will have to drink in moderation to prevent the need to go。
很遺憾，一般在晚餐時不去洗手間。大部分的晚餐都會持續兩小時左右，所以你要適度飲食，以免中途需要去洗手間。
Nocompliments不要恭維
You shouldn't pass comment on the food (because it was cooked by thechef not the Lady of the house)， on the way your host is dressed (because it was a given that shelooked nice) or décor (it would give away your status if you were not used tofine interiors)。
不要贊美食物(因為食物是廚師做的，而不是女主人做的)，也不要贊美主人的著裝(因為默認她看上去不錯)或屋內的裝飾(如果你不習 慣精美的室內環境，這會暴露你的地位)。
Seating plan座位安排
Womendominate at Downton Abbey but traditionally guests would be seated in aboy-girl-boy-girl order. Married couples would be split because it was assumedthey spent enough time with each other and engaged couples were sat together sothat they could talk in a chaperoned setting。
《唐頓莊園》中以女士為主，但傳統是賓客以男—女—男—女的順序就座。已婚夫婦會被分開，因為通常認為他們待在一起的時間已夠長了。訂婚了的夫婦坐在一起，這樣他們可以在監護人的陪伴下交談。
