Peculiarities
Very often the word "etiquette" is associated with how, for example, how to set the table correctly, which glass to use for wine and which one - for water, how to dress for a particular social event. But this concept is broader, it covers all the spectra of a woman's life.
Etiquette is also about how to behave in public transport and how to organize communication in the work collective. A young girl should demonstrate her manners and good manners in relations with the young man, him and her parents.

To embark on the path of "becoming a lady", first of all, you need to learn to control your emotions. Nowadays, many girls are used to expressing their overwhelming feelings violently. Restraint and modesty are the main distinguishing features that distinguish a true lady., and it does not matter, whether it is the joy of meeting a friend or indignation from an unfair incident.
Learning to hide your emotions is a very important step in learning good manners.There is no need to come up with excuses for yourself that at that moment it was impossible to remain silent or outwardly remain indifferent to the situation - the problem will surely be resolved soon, but restoring a damaged reputation is much more difficult.
Try to be tolerant of the shortcomings of others, do not criticize anyone in public, do not interfere in other people's affairs, behave modestly and with dignity - these principles will pay off ignorance of the common rules of etiquette.

Rules of behavior
There is a set of rules that will help you avoid embarrassing moments in life situations in which every girl finds herself day after day.
- When you meet a familiar person on the street, be sure to greet him. Consider the closeness of your relationship. You should not show excessive emotions too loudly and violently or try to call out to a friend across the street, just meet your eyes and nod to each other.
- Avoid on-the-go snacks outside. Firstly, there is a high probability of choking, and secondly, inadvertently you can stain a bystander. This also applies to eating in stores or other public places that are not intended for this.
- During a phone call, make sure your voice is not too loud. If this is not possible, step aside from the main crowd - your negotiations should not be in the public domain.
- Do not sort things out in public if you do not want to receive condemnation from others.

- Don't get into fights with strangers. If you have received a remark, even an unfair one, it is better to apologize or remain silent. Remember that you are a real lady.
- Try not to be late for meetings, come on time if you are invited to visit. Punctuality is an elementary rule of decency that any woman must observe. If, in spite of everything, you understand that you are not in time, be sure to call in advance and warn how long you will be late.
- Pay attention to your posture and gestures during the conversation. Your movements should be restrained, smooth, feminine, should not attract attention and shock.
- The girl's makeup must match the setting. During the day and at work, it is better to choose neutral decorative cosmetics of natural tones, but an evening social event allows you to apply bright lipstick and shadows with sparkles.

Our life is not limited to ordinary everyday life, when you just need to behave within the generally accepted norms of behavior. A young girl in the modern world is trying to comprehend all spheres of life, attend all social events, and make new acquaintances.
More and more meetings of any format are held in the restaurant. To show your best side, to show your awareness and good upbringing, follow basic rules that are easy to remember:
- A trip to a restaurant begins with studying the menu and making an order. Do not be afraid to ask the waiter, for example, about the ingredients, serving method, cooking time.
- Check out the specifics of the institution. If you come to a Chinese restaurant, do not order European cuisine.
- At the table, behave with restraint, always remember about the posture (do not lie on the chair) and gestures (in no case swing your fork!), Do not speak loudly. Remember - you are not alone in the restaurant.
- If the waiter brought your order earlier than others, you should not immediately grab the fork and knife. In this case, you need to wait until everyone has plates on the table.

- Place a napkin on your lap immediately before eating. This will keep it close at hand and keep your clothes clean.
- If something falls off the table (appliance, napkin), do not focus on it. Just call the waiter, he will bring you everything you need.
- Hold the fork and knife correctly, in your left and right hand, respectively. Try not to swap the cutlery.If the garnish is crumbly, use a knife to help fill the fork.
- Use a spoon on your side if your meal includes a first course. This will keep your clothes clean.
- If you can't chew a piece, then gently bring the napkin to your lips and remove it imperceptibly.
These general rules will surely help you “don't lose your face”. Of course, depending on the company at the table, there are assumptions, but only by observing the main points, you can develop a habitual stereotype of behavior for yourself, which will become natural.

One of the most important aspects of any woman's life is relationships with men. The beautiful half of the population always blames the fact that there are no real gentlemen left in nature, but the girls themselves are not distinguished by the presence of good manners.
Remember, by adhering to the principles of a real lady, you are encouraging the opposite sex to treat you appropriately.

There are several basic rules of etiquette in dealing with men:
- Defiant behavior always repels others, especially men, at any stage of the development of a relationship. Remember that there should always be a mystery and understatement in a woman, so do not express your emotions violently - do not forget about restraint.
- Do not sort things out and do not argue with your beau in public. Passionate kissing is also not worth it.
- Don't be too intrusive. Even if the relationship is going through a "candy-bouquet" period, you should not often call or write messages to your partner. Only one call from a woman should fall on three or four calls from a man.
- You shouldn't be too indifferent and arrogant girl either. This will be perceived as disrespectful and alienate the potential partner.
- With pleasure, let the man take care of you, but do not wait and demand yourself when, for example, they open the door to you or give you flowers.

In the traditional sense, etiquette between a man and a woman is supported by patriarchal principles, where all strength and power, as well as the demonstration of superiority of mind and solvency, belong to the strong half. Time changes and the scales gradually level out. For example, in modern society, it is considered acceptable if a lady pays her half of the bill herself or goes first to get acquainted with the man who interested her.

Speech etiquette
Speaking competently and politely is one of the most important qualities of the modern world. In the digital age, men and women are losing this important skill, conversation becomes impoverished, and it becomes more and more difficult to maintain a conversation.
Knowing the basics of speech etiquette will help any girl to present herself correctly in society, teach her to parry, even if the topic of the conversation is unfamiliar.
They say: "They are greeted by their clothes, but they are escorted by their minds." In fact, for a woman, it would be more correct like this: "They are greeted by her clothes, but they are escorted by how she behaves and speaks in society."... A well-mannered person with a correct understanding of the culture of behavior always evokes approval.

Any communication always begins with a greeting:
- There is a certain order that must be followed during the greeting: the younger are always the first to greet the elders in a respectful manner, men greet women, the one who is late - the one who is waiting for him, who entered the room - those who are already gathered in it, the one walking - that who is standing.
- When a couple, a man and a woman, meet a lonely lady, the woman who has an escort is the first to greet her.
- If during a walk a man greeted a person unfamiliar to a woman, a woman should also greet him.
- If a girl is invited to a table event, then, entering the room, she must first greet everyone at once, and after sitting down at the table - with neighbors on both sides.
- A girl can greet a man with a nod of her head, and during a handshake - not take off her glove, only if this is not a meeting with an elderly person. The handshake is a purely female initiative.

The words of greeting are familiar to everyone from childhood: “hello”, “good afternoon”, “good morning” or “good evening”. Among your close friends and comrades, more relaxed options are acceptable, for example, "hello". Pronounce the words clearly and clearly, do not crumple the endings.
The intonation should be friendly, there should be a slight smile on the face. Greet and address the person by first name, older ones by first name and patronymic.

The beginning of any relationship begins with the acquaintance stage. Often times, these situations require the girl to be introduced to a stranger, or she herself needs to introduce her friends. The rules of etiquette in this case are simple:
- A man must take the initiative himself and leave the girl.
- The youngest in age or rank are introduced to the elders first.
- First, they introduce a less familiar person, only then their friend (given that they are of the same age and position).
- If at a given time a woman is alone, then she is the first to introduce herself to a couple or a group of people.
- In the case when it is necessary to introduce two people of different sexes, you should first contact the woman and tell her the name of the man.
- At a social event, it is desirable for a woman to be introduced to this or that guest by the hosts or mutual acquaintances.
- If a seated man is introduced to someone, he must stand up. It is permissible for a woman not to rise from her seat only if she is not introduced to a lady who is much older than her.
- After the introduction, you should greet a new acquaintance and, preferably, exchange handshakes. The woman may start a short detached conversation.

Conversation in a secular society is also governed by the rules of etiquette:
- Watch your intonation. Speech should not be fast, but also not drawn out. Speak calmly, in a low voice. Your tone should be cheerful and friendly.
- Do not use incorrect phrases and "slang" expressions.
- Do not start conversations on irrelevant topics - politics, religion.
- Never go deep into a topic. In society, they always talk about everything a little bit, but in general - about nothing.
- Do not interrupt the other person, but at the same time demonstrate interest and participation in the story.
- If you want to reach out to a person who is standing away from you, just walk up to him. Shouting loudly and talking through other people is unacceptable.
- Avoid hints, dubious jokes in your speech - not everyone can understand specific humor or hidden subtext.
Try to keep the conversation on a positive wave - do not scold or judge anyone. It is better to refrain from any comments altogether, all the more you should not argue and at all costs defend your point of view.
