We see that the life of the English aristocracy in Downton Abbey may be of interest to British culture, and today we're going to talk about British culture and the notes of British culture:
语言交流Language and communication
交流隐私对英国人来说十分重要。尽量不要在相互不熟识的情况下去问个人的隐私问题，例如婚姻、有无孩子、恋爱关系、个人经济状况、健康等涉及私人的生活话题。
It is important for the British to communicate privacy. Try not to ask personal privacy questions without knowing each other, such as marriage, child or absence, relationship, personal financial situation, health, etc.
风俗礼仪与生活习惯Customs and rituals and habits.
英国人普遍有一种强烈的社会责任感，对公共事业、慈善事业等都很关注。英国人很注重礼貌修养，谈话总习惯慢条斯理，很少在公共场合大声喧哗。
The British generally have a strong sense of social responsibility, public utilities, charity and so on are very concerned. The English are polite, talk slowly and rarely make loud noises in public.
餐桌礼仪board etiquette
在餐馆和商店中安静地吃东西并且吃完自己餐盘里所有食物是礼貌的行为。如果用餐完成就把刀叉平行放在餐盘上表明已经吃完了。如果没吃完，就把刀和叉分开成八字形放在餐盘上。
It is polite to eat quietly in restaurants and shops and eat all the food on your plate. If the meal is finished, place the knife and fork parallel to the plate to indicate that you have eaten. If you haven't finished eating, separate the knife and fork into eight shapes and place them on the plate.
