what is etiquette and how do you say it?

Question

I was answering a lot of questions in that section and was just wondering what it was.

Answer 1

Etiquette...is that which is accepted as 'polite' and 'reasonable' in social situations. Pronounced: eh-t-ket. An example would be...do not put your elbows on the dining table...covering your mouth while coughing...etc etc

Answer 2

Definition:
[noun] rules governing socially acceptable behavior




Etiquette, one aspect of decorum, is a code that governs the expectations of social behavior, according to the conventional norm within a society, social class, or group. Usually unwritten, it may be codified in written form. Etiquette usually reflects formulas of conduct in which society or tradition have invested. An etiquette may reflect an underlying ethical code, or in may grow more as a fashion, as in eighteenth century Britain where apparently pointless acts like the manner in which a tea cup was held became important as indicators of upper class status. Like "culture", it is a word that has gradually grown plural, especially in a multi-ethnic society with many clashing expectations. Thus, it is now possible to refer to "an etiquette" or "a culture", realizing that these may not be universal. In Britain, though, the word etiquette has its roots in the eighteenth century, becoming a universal force in the nineteenth century to the extent that it has been described as the one word that aptly describes life during the reign of Queen Victoria .
