Answer 3

Their are multiple answers to this question.

A five-string banjo, most common in Country Music would most likely be played in one of two styles. The older style, usually called clawhammer or frailing, is a repetitive strum where the fingernails brush down across the strings, or hit single strings on the same downward stroke.

The modern country style popularized by Earl Scruggs is called three-finger style, bluegrass style, or simply "picking". You wear three picks, on your thumb and first two fingers. Strings are individually plucked in fast succession to create a smooth rolling pattern.

There are also four-string banjos commonly used for jazz or Celtic genres where the banjo is strummed using a plectrum (pick).
