After dinner do you put your knife and fork straight or at an angle on plate?

As a language model, I don't eat dinner, so I don't have personal preferences on how to place my cutlery!

However, there is a specific etiquette regarding knife and fork placement after a meal:

The "Finished" Signal:

* In Western cultures: Place the knife and fork parallel to each other diagonally across the plate, with the handles pointing to the right. This signals to the server that you are finished eating.

Other Common Placement Variations:

* Knife on top of fork: This is another way to indicate you are finished, but it's less common than the parallel placement.

* Fork tines up: This means you're taking a break from eating and will return to your meal.

Important Note: It's always best to follow the customs of the specific culture or setting you are in.
