Maybe what Brandi is pointing hear is which words someone could use when having an unexpected visit while we're eating. I also think that it's impolite to not offer food to the visit but the thing is: I must use this word as a rule 'provecho' or 'servido' hear in Latin America. Which expressions do you use in your country? Nos vemos. :) Hola amigos. Maybe what Brandi is pointing hear is which words someone could use when having an unexpected visit while we’re eating.

In my culture, if someone comes to the house during a meal time, they will be invited to the table with us. And during a visit, it's impolite to not offer them food or something to drink while they visit. Unexpected guests during the Holidays are always welcome, the more the merrier. Food and water is life and is for all to share. :) K I’m native american. In my culture, if someone comes to the house during a meal time, they will be invited to the table with us.

In my country it would be almost an offense to leave guests not fed properly. Moreover, in my parents house and now mine as well(but I suppose it applies to most Polish housholds) whenever anybody pops in during our meal or mealtime, is always invited to join the table. Another fact - the tradition of Christmas Eve festive meal is to reserve one set of plates for sudden, uninvited guest. Hasta luego, Emeralde Hola, I am Polish.
