Greetings, farewell and dining etiquettes, table manners or the rules of courtesy are the most important communication routine of the social life. The beginning and the finishing of both interpersonal and intercultural communication are realised by these routine. These linguistic and behaviours can show important differences from society to society, from culture to culture. For example altough in Turkey to kiss adult’s hand shows respect, this is not exist in European countries. Like this example, table manners and dining etiquettes are different from society to society and these are definable like “appropriate”, “right” or “inappropriate”, “unwarranted”. An inappropriate form of greeting and dining etiquettes for different culture may lead to failure or not to complete of communication even started yet.

It is the important the beginning, continuation and ending of the healty communication. Communication accidents can be blocked, if linguistic and behaviour models different from society to society is known.
