Presuming that you're referring to dining etiquette in Brazil, it is customary for diners to always keep their hands above the table, however, not your elbows. Alternatively, you may place your wrists on the edge of the table.
Brazil follows closely etiquette styles of the European Continent. There remains a style and grace to social etiquette which is important to understand in a dining environment, especially at someone's home.
This can become particularly challenging for americans where many of the social graces have either subsided or changed dramatically. If you're familiar with the social graces of dining in the United Kingdom, including the holding and usage of cutlery, then you should have little troubles. However, if your dining style may be of a more 'relaxed' nature, it may be advisable to seek a professional course in advance, particularly if you have an important business contract balancing on your ability to be accepted by your Brazilian guests.
