a mandolin is a string instrument that has four sets of two strings.
so it looks like there are four strings but there are really eight.
it has a "light" sound to it like a Ukulele or a banjo and is tuned like a violin.
A mandolin is also a very sharp slicing instrument used by kitchen workers.

Is there a difference between a mandolin and a violin or is it the selfsame instrument but played in a different way?
Yes, there is a difference. A mandolin is a lute-like instrument, played like a guitar: http://www.answers.com/topic/mandolin?cat=entertainment A violin is a stringed instrument, played with a bow: http://www.answers.com/topic/violin?cat=entertainment However, just as there are four members of the violin family - the violin, viola, cello/violoncello and double bass, there are four basic members of the mandolin family which bear some relation to the violin family's relationships. These are as follows: * mandolin, with a range similar to that of the violin * mandola or tenor mandola, tuned to a fifth below the mandolin, meaning it has the same relationship as a viola to a violin * mandocello or mandolin cello * mando-bass, which is tuned like a double bass There are also several other mandolins in the mandolin family, such as the octave mandolin, the piccolo or sopranino mandolin, and several other variants of the mandolin from other countries.
