"itadakimasu" in your language
Quote from Nisseman
In finland we doesnt really say anythin before we eat =P
"Kiitos ruoasta."
Although it's not that common to thank family members or
your friends.

after the meal in german we say "danke" and in polish we say "dziekuje"(difficult for foreighners to spell) and both of them mean "thank you".
We have say Lai Cha Lo meaning "Come, Let's Eat" in Taiwanese to our elders and wait for them to start eating before we can eat.
As for with friends, well, let's just say "You Snooze You Lose" 🤣

If I may butt in wouldn't "hyvää ruokahalua" be pretty near to "Itadakimasu"?

"Que te aproveche" (Dominican Republic). Seems like the "provecho" thing is a spanish standard...

english doesn't really have an equivelant. if we did say something it would be "bon appetite" 😉
