What does it mean to sit next to you?

"Second seat" is a traditional etiquette term, which mainly refers to the order in which guests are seated. Generally speaking, seating arrangement is divided according to identity, position, age, gender and other factors. In China's traditional seating culture, "sitting next to others" is regarded as showing respect for others' performance and showing people a clear and orderly social habit.

When we sit in a row, we need to follow some basic rules. First of all, the seating needs to be determined according to the identity, position and seniority of the guests. Secondly, when arranging the seating order, we need to pay attention to balance the order and comfort, try to avoid making guests feel uncomfortable, and also pay attention to discretion and courtesy. Finally, after the seating arrangement is completed, the host needs to designate a person as the opening speaker to guide the atmosphere and discuss the content.

With the progress of the times, some changes have taken place in the arrangement and use of seats in modern people's daily life. Nowadays, in social occasions, people often show their identity and social status through labels or some recognized ways, which also replaces the traditional way of sitting next to others to some extent. However, in some occasions, such as business meetings, official dinners and other formal occasions, it is still a etiquette norm that needs to be respected and valued, and this traditional culture has been passed down and developed by people.
