A polite person - what is he? Qualities of a polite person. Speech etiquette - rules of polite communication Rules of politeness in communication

The rules of courtesy are the most important attribute of every educated person. Good manners must be learned from early age and steadfastly observe them under any circumstances, in any environment. Let's find out what are the rules of politeness in communication at home, at school, on a walk, in public places.

What is courtesy for?

Politeness is a manifestation of good upbringing, which directly indicates the level of a person’s culture, his wealth inner peace. The rules of politeness were not created by chance: it is much easier for educated people to expand their circle of contacts and achieve their goals.

In fact, being a polite person is not so difficult. It is enough to instill good manners in yourself and not to forget to apply them everywhere and everywhere. After some time, they will become a habit, and such behavior will become the absolute norm.

Rice. 1. Even small children should know the rules of politeness.

But how does a polite person behave in society? Let's look at the most common life situations.

  • When meeting with a familiar person or group of people, it is imperative to say hello. You need to do this correctly: smile friendly, look the interlocutor straight in the eye, pronounce the greeting clearly, with soft, courteous intonations.

You can say hello to friends or classmates by simply saying “Hello!”. For all other people, the greeting should be more restrained - “Good afternoon (morning, evening)!”, “Hello!”, But in no case “Hey, you”, “Hello” and so on. This indicates a low culture of a person.

Rice. 2. Meeting with friends.

  • Seeing a friend on the street, you should not run towards him, pushing passers-by in the way. If a chance meeting took place in a cafe, cinema or theater, it is enough to nod in greeting, but not shout it out.
  • In public places, you should not talk or laugh too loudly, gesticulate excessively emotionally.
  • The rules of courtesy also provide for a mandatory farewell when leaving.
  • Unfamiliar or older people should be addressed to "You". And only with friends, classmates, relatives, it is appropriate to appeal to “You”.

In everyday life for real polite person there are always words that are commonly called "magic". After all, even in the most difficult situation, they will help to find mutual understanding with the interlocutor. Such words include "Thank you", "Please", "Sorry", "Please ...".

Polite Behavior

But not only the use of polite words can make a person well-mannered. Great importance have his actions, behavior. To be known as a cultured and polite person, you need to follow simple rules:

TOP 2 articleswho read along with this

  • Do not raise your voice to the interlocutor, do not interrupt him, listen carefully to everything that he wants to say.
  • Give up your seat on public transport to those who need it more.
  • In a theater or cinema, when walking to your seat, you need to apologize to people already sitting and move only facing the audience.
  • In public places, in no case do not pick your nose, teeth, blow your nose loudly, yawn with your mouth open.

Whatever you do, you must always remember that you do not live alone in the world. You are surrounded by other people, your loved ones, your comrades. You must behave in such a way that it is easy and pleasant for them to live next to you.

This is what true education and true politeness are all about.

A polite person will never turn on the radio or TV at full volume; it can always turn out that behind the wall someone is reading or writing and loud noise will interfere with him.

A polite person would not put a loudspeaker in front of an open window, even on a Sunday morning. What if someone in the house came back from the night shift and is now asleep? Would it be good if you prevent a person from resting?

Even such a seemingly trifle as the habit of slamming a door with all its might or shouting loudly on the stairs speaks of a lack of education. Indeed, in any apartment there may be a sick or hard working person.

well-mannered man shows respect for other people in everything.

If you see, for example, an artist drawing, do not look over your shoulder at his sketchbook or easel. This way you can stop him.

Do not also look at the book your friend is reading or the letter he is writing. It might be embarrassing for him.

But, if you write something yourself, do not cover what you have written with your hand when someone comes up. Do not distrust the approacher, as if he was going to find out your secrets.

Do not try to read a letter that is not addressed to you. It's the same as eavesdropping on someone else's conversation.

But, if you yourself ask someone to deliver your letter, leave the envelope unsealed, otherwise you will show that you do not fully trust the one who fulfills your request.

Cultivate the habit of constantly remembering those around you:

- do not push through the crowd, helping yourself with your elbows;

- cover your mouth with your hand when you cough or sneeze;

- do not forget to say "please" when you ask for something, and thank you for any, the most insignificant service;

- help an elderly person carry a heavy package home;

- take a blind man or an old woman across the street;

- if the company is playing or sharing something, try to come last;

- even in a conversation or a game, always help the weakest, stand up for him.

Let these actions at first glance not be so significant, but it is from such trifles that the character of a person gradually develops.

And someday this character will manifest itself in a big, serious matter.

Aesthetics of behavior

In fact, aesthetics is the science of beauty. When they say "aesthetics of behavior", they emphasize that the behavior should be beautiful. Not only correct, not only reasonable, but also necessarily beautiful.

It is ugly to stand, transferring the weight of the body to one leg, hunching your shoulders. And etiquette considers such a pose indecent.

Pay attention, guys, we use the words all the time: ugly, funny, tasteless, untidy. This is what the behavior of a person of low culture, bad upbringing looks like. An educated person good relationship expresses to people with beautiful forms of behavior: smartness, composure, attractive manners, dignity, calmness. In short, a well-mannered person is handsome.

That is why good breeding, a culture of behavior make our life together comfortable, pleasant, reasonable and beautiful. We believe in this passionately and sincerely. Then everyone around us: parents, comrades, educators, teachers and even strangers will be fine with us. And we will be well and joyfully among the people. And without this, perhaps, happiness does not exist.

From small to big

Many years ago, in 1912, in Atlantic Ocean happened terrible disaster. The huge passenger ship Titanic, which was on its first flight from Europe to America, collided with a large iceberg in the fog, got a hole in it and began to sink.

- Lower the boats! the captain commanded.

But the boats were not enough. They were only enough for half of the passengers.

- Women and children - to the gangplank, men - put on life belts! came the second command.

The men silently moved away from the side. The ship was slowly sinking into the dark, cold water. One after another, boats with women and children rolled away from the sinking ship. Here the landing in the last boat began.

And suddenly, screaming and howling, a fat man rushed to the gangplank, his face contorted with animal fear. Pushing women aside, pushing away girls who were holding their little brothers by the hand, he thrust wads of money into the sailors and tried to jump into the crowded boat.

There was a soft dry click. It was the captain who fired the pistol.

The coward fell on deck dead. But no one looked back in his direction.

Surrounding the captain's bridge, the men stood calmly...

This incident involuntarily comes to mind when you see how a healthy, strong boy is in a hurry to take a vacant seat in a train car, ahead of a tired woman with a heavy bag or an old man leaning on a stick.

What would he do if it was not a place to sit, but a place in the last boat? Would he have had the courage, pride and nobility to refuse salvation in favor of the weakest?

I am afraid it is not. After all, the big always grows out of the small. As the Chinese say, "The longest journey begins with the first small step."

You are taking your first steps in life. The path you take in your life depends on what these first steps will be.

Mother's smile

The one who from childhood did not know how to be a good son, a tender daughter will never become a great, noble person.

Just think how much you owe your mother!

How many sleepless nights she spent over your bed when you were very small! How many worries she gave you while you grew up! And now, probably, you cost her a lot of work. After all, she is ready to sacrifice everything, just to make you feel good.

Do you always appreciate her love for you?

Remember how many unnecessary worries you cause her when, having gone out late, you do not come home at the promised time! If you could see what anxiety her eyes fill then, how wary she listens to every step on the stairs, you would always try to return on time or be sure to warn her of your being late.

Isn't all her love for you worth that little attention?

You sleep peacefully, and she sits bent over with a needle until late at night and darns your socks and tights, or washes your shirts, or irons your suit.

Don't you want to do something for her too, to answer this concern?

Start small. When walking down the street with her, do not let her carry a heavy bag, but carry her purchases yourself. When she comes home, help her undress, bring slippers. If she drops the scissors, thimble, handkerchief - pick it up and give it.

Try to help her with the housework more often than anything: help sweep the rooms, wipe the dust. Yes, and do not litter yourself in vain, so as not to deliver her unnecessary cleaning.

All this will seem small to you. But you have no idea how great a joy it will be for her any manifestation of attention on your part. How proud she will be that she has such an attentive son, such a caring daughter!

under your protection

Have you noticed that when a man walks down the street next to a woman, he usually keeps to her left? This custom also has its own history.

Even relatively not so long ago, only two or three hundred years ago, men did not leave the house without weapons. Each had a rapier, sword or dagger hanging on his left side. And officials, even before the end of the last century, were required to wear a sword with their uniform.

In order for the weapon dangling while walking not to hit the legs of the companion, the gentleman tried to walk to the left of the lady. Gradually it became a custom.

Now only the military carry weapons, and even then not always. And yet it’s more correct for the boy to go to the left of the girl, because our people disperse to the right, and it’s better to let the oncoming one inadvertently hit you with his shoulder, and not your companion.

Only the military, when they are in uniform, are not subject to this rule today. In order, without delay, to give a military greeting to the oncoming military and not to hurt a companion with their elbow, they must have right hand free. Therefore, they always go not to the left, but to the right.

Blacksmith, weaver, doctor,

"Good morning!" I shout.

“Good afternoon!” I shout after.

Everyone going to lunch.

“Good evening!” - so I meet everyone hurrying home for tea.

W: Guys, why are polite words also called “magic”? What "magic" words do you know? (Children call) Listen poems about these words.

Bon Voyage. _____________________

They wish us: "Good luck!"

It will be easier to drive and walk.

Will lead, of course, a good way

Something good too.

Hello. _____________________

    Hello! - you tell the person.

    Hello! he smiles back.

And probably won't go to the pharmacy

And will be healthy for many years.

Thank you. _________________

Why do we say "thank you"?

For everything they do for us.

And we couldn't remember

Who was told how many times?

Sorry. _______________

I'm sorry, I won't

Accidentally breaking dishes

And interrupt adults

And what he promised to forget.

But if I forget

I'm sorry, I won't do it again.

You are welcome. _____________

Cancel, or something, the word "please" - We repeat it every minute.

No, perhaps that without "please»

    But ... a long time ago from Nastya
    I don't hear the word hello

    3. And what is the word -
    Very expensive!
    I met Vitya, a neighbor ...
    The meeting was sad.
    On me he is like a torpedo,
    Came in from around the corner!
    But imagine! - in vain from Viti
    I was waiting for the word sorry

W: You need to remember and second rule of courtesy - it is necessary to find the right words in time and use them, that is, to know to whom, when and what to say.

Tell me, is Vitya polite or not?

1. Vitya offended the kid,
But in front of the school in the ranks
Vitya asks:
“Sorry, I admit my mistake.

2. The teacher came to the lesson,
Put a magazine on the table
Next is Vitya:
- Sorry, I'm a little late.

3. - Tikhomirov, show me
Us on the map the city of Pskov
- Sorry, -
Vitya whispers, -
I'm not ready for the lesson.

4. The argument has been going on in the classroom for a long time,
Vitya is polite or not
Understand this controversy
And send us an answer.

W: What answer can be given? (You can’t cover up bad deeds with polite words.)
- And what you need to do, Samuil Marshak's poem "If you are polite" will tell you.

Etiquette is a word of French origin, meaning demeanor, rules of politeness, good breeding, courtesy that must be observed in society, at work, at school, university, at the table and even on the street.

The rules of etiquette are unwritten, binding, that is, it is a demeanor adopted "by default" and observed by people as a kind of standard that is not subject to discussion. An educated person should not only know and adhere to the norms of etiquette, but also understand their significance for life and society. After all, good manners are a reflection of the inner world of a person, an indicator of his intellectual level and moral principles. At more possibilities to develop, establish contacts, create good relationships with other people and, therefore, to achieve their goals.

Courtesy from the cradle

Politeness is always and everywhere highly valued. in big cities and major cities politeness turns into a rare and valuable gift, not available to everyone. Rudeness and bad manners are becoming the norm, and this does not surprise anyone. Therefore, it is very important to cultivate the seeds of etiquette in the heart of a child from an early age, along with the first word and deed. Very often, parents, not knowing, adopt the experience of their friends or the older generation. This is not entirely correct.

Every person is different, including your child. He will not understand the authoritarian and demanding attitude towards himself. Adults need to stock up on patience and endurance in order to instill politeness and courtesy in their child. In no case do not force or put pressure on the child. Ask, be polite, and the child will gladly fulfill all your requests. Repeat when talking to him as often as possible magic words- "thank you" and "please". But the rules of politeness for children are not limited to these words. Gradually teach him to say hello, say goodbye, apologize. Encourage him to read, followed by a discussion of the actions of the characters in the book. Explain how to behave with people, and how not to. And most importantly - always and everywhere be polite yourself. After all, a child copies the behavior of his parents and, seeing an example of etiquette before his eyes, he will try to follow it.

Etiquette from the school bench

Having received the basic concepts of good and evil, the child moves to the next level - school, where throughout educational process he is taught the basic rules of etiquette.

As a second home, the school sets itself the same good goals as parents. However, the rules of courtesy at school should not consist only of moralizing lectures and instructive conversations.

For a deep and detailed mastery of all the canons of etiquette, teachers should conduct classes, dedicated to the lessons and courtesy, in the form:

  • seminars and trainings, where conversations are held on the principle of "answer-question", various situations are discussed, lines of behavior are played, situations are modeled;
  • games in which participants are divided into several groups and play out life situations related to the norms of etiquette.

Such original methods, as a rule, are effective and efficient, they help to identify the level of politeness of each student, teach children mutual understanding, norms of behavior in a particular situation. Schoolchildren easily and imperceptibly learn the rules of courtesy, examples given by senior mentors, and also become more open and sociable.

You have to say goodbye

Correct and skillful greeting is one of the immutable norms of etiquette. It is necessary to greet people with a friendly, open smile. The rules of courtesy when meeting people are as follows: try to look them straight in the eye, speak clearly and clearly, while the tone of address should be soft and courteous. The greeting is usually accompanied by the words: “Hello” (appeal to friends and closest acquaintances), “Hello” (universal appeal), “Good morning (afternoon, evening)” (depending on the time of day).

What Not to Do

The rules of etiquette have their own "veto", that is, prohibited actions that can expose you

  • You should not address a person with the exclamation "Hello!", "Hey, you!"
  • Seeing a friend, you should not desperately make your way to him through the whole room, causing inconvenience to the rest of those present.
  • When meeting acquaintances in a theater or restaurant, you should nod slightly in greeting, and not shout at the whole neighborhood.
  • Having met a friend on the street, do not delay him for a long time, it is better to arrange the next meeting or a phone call.
  • It is not recommended to slap an unfamiliar person on the shoulder when greeting him.

Who greets whom

Who should say hello first? The basic rules of politeness in this case are as follows. Hello first:

  • a man with a woman;
  • subordinate with boss:
  • junior (by age, rank, position) with senior;
  • entered the room;
  • walking with standing.

In any case, polite and well-mannered people are the first to greet.

Appeal as a formula of etiquette

The rules of politeness also affected the forms of addressing people to each other. There are three forms of appeal:


There are no clear rules on how to switch from “you” to “you”, this is established by the interlocutors themselves, or is present in the form of an appeal by ill-mannered people who are used to saying “you” to everyone indiscriminately.

Table etiquette rules

The rules have been in place for many years and centuries. They are the same for everyone and everyone, be it a builder or a president.

The first and immutable rule is that you can not place and put your elbows on the table. It is forbidden to slurp and talk with your mouth full, especially on a romantic date.

You should sit straight, not leaning on the table or chair of the guest sitting next to you. It is considered indecent to drum your fingers on the table, gesticulate desperately, throw up a napkin, cutlery, take food from someone else's plate, and talk loudly.

The rules of courtesy and etiquette that should be observed at the table also prohibit blowing on hot food, bending over the table, talking on the phone, singing, whistling, makeup and powdering. A man pays attention to a woman sitting to his right: he entertains her with conversations, puts snacks on her plate, pours drinks.

General rules of courtesy
