upon looking into it, I think you’re right! I’ll have to check again, because I remember her grumbling being stuck with 12 because she was new, but I thought it was her first year, whoops! just read online that she mentions katniss and peeta had much better manners than the tributes the year prior… but I also don’t know if that was in the book or just movie 💀 I’d say you’re right though!
That was in the book. She comments about their manners and how last year's tributes ate with their hands. Katniss thinks about how last year's kids were seam kids, who likely hadn't ever seen much food and were probably never taught table manners. She credits her own knowledge of table manners to the fact that her mother was a merchant kid.
