Six Things You should Never Do Before the Queen

※Don’t show up empty handed.

What do you get the woman who already has everything? Sure, the Queen has several homes full of priceless trinkets(饰品), but bringing a gift is necessary. 1. So if she’s paying a visit to your hometown or country, something which reflects local culture might go down better than W.H. smith’s vouchers(优惠券).

2.

You may be dead on your painful feet---but you should always stand when the queen enters the room. You may only sit once she has taken the seat, so keep a close eye on when the Queen sits down herself.

※Don’t ignore the dress code.

Regardless of how late you’re running or how tempting it is to stay in your casual clothes, make sure you dress accordingly when meeting HRH. 3.

※Resist the temptation to refer to her by her first name.

While the Royal family may be extremely familiar to us, and while we may have our own nicknames for them, we common folk still aren't on a first name basis with them. So, when you meet the Queen she should be addressed as “Your Majesty” and “Ma’am” consequently after. When she leaves, however, you must address her as “Your Majesty” once again.

※Only speak if the queen speaks to you.

Remember when you were a small child and all your elders would drop wisdom such as “don’t speak unless spoken to first” and “children should be seen and not heard”? 4. This rule exists so Her Royal Highness can control every aspect of the conversation-- including exiting it swiftly.

※Don’t eat before she does.

No matter how tasty and tempting the banquet morsels spread in front of you look, you can only start eating once the Queen does. So perhaps have a quick snack beforehand, in case any speeches go on for a long time. 5.

A. Stand to attention.

B. Watch out for Queen.

C. Oh, and if she has finished eating, you’d better be full too.

D. If the event is black tie, wear black tie.

E. You are supposed to listen to them though you've grown up.

F. This gift must also be appropriate to the occasion.

G. The same applies to meeting the Queen.
