Hi!
I have a question............
Could anyone tell me the correct way in saying......
"What's good manners?" or "What are good manners"? I think manners is in the singular form as in "pants". I don't want to know what the manners are just what is good manners?
Anyone please help....this means alot to me.
Thanks

If you are in a social situation and you are unsure of the conventions, you can ask,
"Is it good manners to (for example) remove your shoes at the door?"

Or, "Is it polite to do this?"
"What is the polite way to" do X or Y in Canada, or Japan, or wherever you are.
