Manners are a system of rules and conventions that regulate social and professional behavior. Each society has its own distinct etiquette, and various cultures within a society also have their own rules and social norms. Learning these codes of behavior can be very challenging for people who are new to a particular culture, and even old hands sometimes have a rough time. Because the social norms of different cultures are so different, many people study manners before traveling or entering a new social circle to ensure that they do not cause offense or embarrass themselves.
