You could certainly tune the Mandolin like that. It just requires the right size strings to be used. You could then use Ukulele tabs to play songs, but the sound would be different.
Maybe, depending on the ukulele. The uke is designed to be strung with gut or nylon strings. Metal is very likely to over stress the instrument. The larger ukuleles are more likely to have a metal string. Note that some strings, such as those for a banjolele or a bass ukulele, are wound with very thin wire to make it vibrate in the correct areas.
Dulcimers are strung with steel strings. It would be possible to use nylon strings, but it would not have the same sound.
Guitars usually have six strings, although there are variations on this, the most common being a twelve-string guitar; the seven string guitar; the ukulele, which has four strings; and the bass guitar, which usually has four strings but also exists in five, six, eight, and twelve-string versions. There are also more exotic models involving multiple necks and pickups. The weight of a string is determined by its diameter and is normally measured in thousandths of an inch. The larger the diameter the heavier the string is (with thinner strings being lighter). Heavier strings require more tension for the same pitch and are consequently harder to hold on to the fretboard. Heavier strings will also produce a louder note and for this reason steel-strung acoustic guitars will normally be strung heavier than electric guitars. On electric guitars, heavier strings may also produce a thicker tone, leading to their use by rhythm guitarists in rock music.
All ukuleles are strung with the 1st and 4th strings on the outside. They go in order 1, 2, 3 and 4.
Pretty much it is the same way. If the instrument is strung the same way (mine is) you get the same chords and notes from the same string fret combinations. The banjolele tends to be louder. Many use a different strumming technique then they would on a standard ukulele.

An ukulele is a small four-stringed instrument, similar to a guitar. The ukulele is popular in Hawaii. The word 'ukulele' itself is Hawaiian. It translates to 'jumping flea'. If you have an opportunity to watch a band play in Hawaii, watch for the mini-guitar that is the ukulele! Whenever you see someone dancing the Hula, there will be a ukulele playing the music they are swaying to. You can also see the ukulele in some modern music, such as Train's rendition of "Hey, Soul Sister" or "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz. The ukulele is considerably easier to play than the guitar, because it has only four strings. Also, the ukulele has softer strings that did not cut into the fingertips, the way guitar strings do. Having these different strings gives the ukulele a completely different sound than the guitar. While the guitar has a metallic sound, the ukulele sounds warmer and is more suitable for the island music it plays. If you read guitar music, you will have no problem reading the music for a ukulele. It looks just like the music for a guitar, except it is written with the four dots instead of the six! Chords are instantly recognizable. I recommend learning the ukulele if you are looking for an easy way to play and learn the guitar. The uke is interchangeable with the guitar, but is far easier than the guitar! The instrument is cheaper to buy, too.
The Portuguese guitar (or Portuguese guitarra) is the national musical instrument of Portugal. It is a plucked string instrument with twelve steel strings, strung in six courses comprising two strings each.
Spontaneous emergence of grammar.Answer Firstly, it's "highly strung", or sometimes "high-strung". There are at least two possible origins for the phrase, one from stringed musical instruments and the other from archery, the latter from a bow which has been over-strung, that is with a too-short string. The implication with both possibilities is that an implement with a string too tight is on the verge of some sort of breakdown, just as with a person who it's suggested is "highly strung" is nervy and jumpy and not completely in control.
