It is perfectly acceptable to ask your sponsor about any unique customs.  In general, good table manners, respectful conversation and dress are appropriate.  The specifics largely depend on the type of dinner you will attend.  If it is a small, private affair, then one acts as one might at any dinner party.  If it is a public feast then there may be additional considerations according to the traditions of the institution.\n\nI recommend reading De Brett's Guide to Modern Etiquette for a detailed discussion of dinner-related manners.  It is the de facto standard for British gentlemen.

I used to live in New York.   All I can said is:  It is a good place to visit, but not to live there.  I moved out from New York 20 years ago.  \n\nIf you have friend live there, you should visit it some day.

There are many students of English in Manhattan. It is a big place, but you will find schools that have english classes in The Voice, which is a free newspaper.  Also try visiting Baruch College on Lexington Ave and 25th Street.  Or Hunter College at Lexington and 68th.  These are just two of the many colleges/schools in NYC where you can get help with your English. Otherwise just hang out at Union Square(14th St.), most people that are also hanging out wouldn't mind a short conversation with you if you are kind and not interrupting them.

New yorker's aren't a-holes, we're just very direct and very fast, and tend to get annoyed when others don't keep up. not alot of time for social niceties in the city that never sleeps. We're polite, just NY polite, i.e., a nod of the head as a greeting, taking the hand of a little kid who is scared to cross from the platform to the train, holding a cab for somebody who wants it after you just got out. All done wordlessly with no eye contact and maybe a muttered "thanks". We don't have time to gush, recieve gushing appreciation, or even engage in small talk, but it is nonetheless, our version of politeness.

I dont live in NY but Tacoma.  I spent 2 years in NJ.  NY is my favorite place on earth.  There is something for everyone to do every hour of every day.  Everyone may seem in a rush but there are some really cool people to meet.  Where else can you be on one block with all italians and the next block with all asian.  Wow.  So much fun to go to.  The parks all over the city.  Odd spots but so cool to just see kids playing.  I could talk for hours.

New York City. I grew up in NYC. Have spent some time in Hollywood as well, and it's very different. I enjoyed it, but it isn't the same -actually Los Angeles is very spread out but Hollywood is just a small part of it. New York is spread over 5 boroughs, all of which are part of NYC so I'd have a lot more choice of where to live. Culturally New York is the best place to be (even though I don't quite concur with Woody Allen's assessment that the only cultural advantage LA has is that you can make a right turn on red). There are some things about Hollywood/LA that are nice (like the fact that you can go sunbathing on the beach in January), but even in winter, NYC would be the place I'd want to live.

Its socially accepted. It depends how many you get, the jewelry and clothing.
