意味
To remove tableware after a meal.
文化的背景
The 'sobremesa' is a vital part of Spanish culture. Clearing the table too early can be seen as rushing your guests. It's common to leave the crumbs and coffee cups on the table for an hour while talking. In Mexico, the term 'trastes' is often used instead of 'mesa' when talking about cleaning up. 'Recoger los trastes' is the most common way to refer to this chore. Argentines often use 'levantar la mesa'. It reflects the action of picking up the plates to take them to the kitchen. In many formal Latin American households, it is considered very polite for guests to offer to help clear the table, even if the host refuses.
The 'Yo' Rule

Be a Great Guest
In Spain, always offer to help clear the table. Even if they say no, the gesture is highly valued.
