معنی
A polite wish for someone to enjoy their food.
زمینه فرهنگی
Saying 'Bon appétit' is the signal that it is okay to start eating. It is considered rude to start before the host says it. In Quebec, the phrase is used just as frequently as in France, but the response might more often be 'Merci, toi aussi !' in casual settings. Belgians often use 'Bon appétit' but might follow it with more specific regional food terms. In French-speaking Switzerland, 'Bon appétit' is strictly observed, especially during the long, traditional lunch breaks.
The Liaison is Key
Always pronounce the 'n' sound. If you don't, it sounds like two separate, disconnected words.
Don't say it too early
Wait until the food is actually on the table.
