Some British people like to invite friends for a meal at home. You should not be sad if your English friends don't invite you home. It doesn't mean they don't like you!

Dinner parties usually start between 7 and 8 p. m. and end at about 11 p. m. Ask your hosts(主人) what time you should arrive. It's polite to bring some flowers, chocolate or a bottle of wine (酒) as a gift.

Usually dinners start with drinks. Do you want to be polite? Say how much you like the room or the pictures on the wall. But remember—it's not polite to ask how much things cost.

In many families, the husband sits at one end of the table and the wife sits at the other end. They eat with their guests.

You'll probably start the meal with soup or something small, and then you'll have meat or fish with vegetables. Finally, you'll have dessert. It's polite to finish everything on your plate and take more if you want.

Do you enjoy the evening? Call your hosts, or write them a short thank?you letter after that. British people like to say “thank you” all the time.
