Greet people with '¡Buenos días!' or '¡Buenas tardes!' when entering a room or shop
Start a conversation or request without first acknowledging the other person with a greeting
Expect social events to start 15-30 minutes late, as punctuality is more relaxed in social settings
Arrive exactly on time for a house party and expect it to be in full swing; you might be the first one there
Use 'usted' when speaking to elders or people you don't know to show respect
Address strangers or elderly people with the informal 'tú' until they invite you to do so
Say '¡Buen provecho!' to fellow diners when you pass their table or finish your meal
Start eating your meal until everyone at the table has been served
