For example, it is not polite to arrive with a gift of flowers in hand, because the hostess will deal with finding a vase when she is too busy to do that.
Though the French love wine, you must never bring a bottle of wine to a dinner party. Why? It's as if you feared your hosts would not have enough wine on hand, and that's an insult (侮辱 ) . You may, however, offer a box of chocolate which the hostess will pass after dinner with coffee.

bathroom in a private house. Once seated at the table, guests must never get up and leave the table-not to go to the bathroom, not to help the hostess in the kitchen, and not to serve or clear.
