While you might think that good table manners are as simple as eating with your mouth closed and avoiding starting before the host, in fact there are a whole host of unwritten rules you can - and should - be aware of.
Etiquette expert Anna Musson revealed that your dining habits are social signifiers, and if you call a napkin a serviette and lick your knife or soup spoon it's bad news.
In a video clip for her etiquette channel, Anna explained exactly how you should eat - whether you're in someone's house or out at a restaurant. She also shared the three 'golden rules' of good dining.

Anna (pictured) said you should avoid leaving any 'keys, bags or phones' on the table when eating - 'anything that could distract you from talking to the people you're having dinner with'
For Anna, the first thing to think about if you're sitting down at a table is that your bread should always be on the left and your drink on the right.
'Once you've sat down, the next thing we do is take our napkin, which should never be called a serviette,' she said.
'Place it on your lap, and never down the front of your shirt.'
If you need to get up from the table to go to the bathroom, fold your napkin 'loosely' and place it on your left-hand side.
The etiquette expert said you should also avoid leaving any 'keys, bags or phones' on the table when you're eating - 'anything that could distract you from talking to the people you're having dinner with'.
'The correct way to hold cutlery is each handle fitting comfortably in your palm, and then your index finger should guide where your finger rests on the utensil,' Anna (pictured) said
When it comes to cutlery, there are myriad mistakes it is possible to make.
'The correct way to hold cutlery is each handle fitting comfortably in your palm, and then your index finger should guide where your finger rests on the utensil,' Anna said.
She said you should keep your 'elbows in nice and close to avoid looking like a chicken', and then you should 'stab the food with the fork and move the knife'.
'We shouldn't ever be tearing at our food, because not only does that make a terrible noise, but it also looks awful,' Anna said.
When you're eating, Anna recommended you take a pause every 'three to four mouthfuls' so you can engage with the person on your left or right.
'At this time, you should cross your utensils over each other on your plate,' she said.
She also said you shouldn't put your knife down if you were given a knife and fork:
'With the exception of pasta and Asian dishes, if you started with a knife and fork, you should finish with a knife and fork,' she said.
Anna also offered a tip on eating soup.
'You should never lick the spoon,' she said.
'Instead, you should tip the soup into your mouth from the spoon, so there's always a little bit of soup left on the spoon.'
Anna also said you should avoid licking your knife or 'using your fork like a shovel' - and you also shouldn't lick a soup spoon (stock image)
Lastly, the expert shared the 'golden rules' of dining.
'Your elbows should always be off the table if there is food on it. Otherwise, you can place your elbows on the table if there isn't.'
Anna also said you should avoid licking your knife or 'using your fork like a shovel'.
'The most important is that you always finish what's in your mouth before talking,' she said.
It's better to show someone you're still eating than try to speak to them and show them what is inside your mouth.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
