让我们看看BBC Learning English programme的怎么说
Helen: Second rule, don’t put your elbows on the table.
Yang Li: Elbows 胳膊肘, 就餐时不要把胳膊肘放在桌面上。
Helen: Personally, I think this rule applies in formal dinner situations, not when you’re having a casual meal with friends.
Yang Li: That’s good to know, Helen. 正式场合胳膊肘决不能上桌面，但是与朋友之间的轻松聚会时就另当别论了。
