India was a part of the British Commonwealth for many years

and as a result of that connection a considerable volume of the Indian population have been influenced by the British style of etiquette - formal and somewhat conservative.

Indian etiquette is quite formal, a mix of both Western and Asian culture.

Слайд 3

DINING ETIQUETTE
Dining etiquette in India is quite different to Western countries.

There it is considered proper Indian etiquette to eat with your hands; this is how the majority of the Indian people eat.

Слайд 4

Very few people practice this part of Indian etiquette when dining

in the 5 star Westernized hotels and restaurants

Слайд 5

NORTH INDIA
Indian etiquette and good manners vary from region to region.

In North India it is impolite to dirty more than the first two segments of your fingers.

Слайд 6

SOUTH INDIA
In the South, where they eat lots more rice, and

enjoy very wet curries, it is permitted to use your whole hand

Слайд 7

If you do join in and eat with your hands, try

not to use your left hand. In Indian etiquette this is usually considered ‘unclean’ and quite offensive.

Слайд 8

Part of the traditional Indian etiquette and culture is to share

food.

Слайд 9

It is not difficult to eat with your fingers, but there

are a few rules of Indian etiquette that have to be observed:

Слайд 10

1. The left hand is not used for eating, (even if you

are left-handed,) this is considered offensive and unclean.

Слайд 11

2. Wait to be served. Remember you are eating with your hands

and your right hand will be messy, therefore you will leave the serving spoon all sticky and messy too.

Слайд 12

3. The hygiene of jootha:
Sharing is good Indian etiquette and manners, but

sharing a glass, spoon, drinking bottle etc., coming into contact with another’s spit is called jootha and is considered offensive in many parts of India.

Слайд 13

4. In Indian etiquette never offer anyone food from your thali, even

if it is in one of the little bowls and you haven't touched it. All the food that is placed on your thali becomes jootha:. There is no precise English equivalent ofjootha. ‘Contaminated' comes closest in meaning.

Слайд 14

MOSTLY INDIAN ETIQUETTE HAS THE SAME BASIC RULES AS WESTERN ETIQUETTE,

FOR EXAMPLE:

Wash your hands before and after a meal.
Ask for whatever you want instead of reaching out directly or pointing at dishes.
Don’t make too much noise; don’t talk with food in your mouth.
