It is used to make music, which is with the bow that creates the sound. It works like this: there are little microscopic hooks on the bows hair (which is horse hair), which if you use resin it makes the hooks stand up to catch the string and make the sound. The sound vibrates off the sound post inside of the violin, and it comes up trough the f shapes holes, and it creates the sound. When you put your fingers down on the finger board, it creates different high or low sounds, which are the different bases of songs. The violin usually consists of four strings, the G string, the D string, the A string, and the E string. The G being the lowest sounding and thickest string, and the E being the highest sounding and thinnest. You hold the violin and bow a specific way. And, there are many types of music you can play with the violin.
