The mouthpiece of a woodwind instrument is the part of the instrument which is placed partly in the player's mouth. Single-reed instruments have mouthpieces while exposed double-reed instruments and open flutes do not have mouthpieces. The Oboe and the bassoon are two instruments that have a double reed.

Among woodwind instruments, the flute does not use bellows as a source of air. Instead, it produces sound through the vibration of air across an opening. In contrast, instruments like the bagpipe or accordion rely on bellows to push air through the reeds. Other woodwinds, such as clarinets and oboes, use a single or double reed mechanism but still do not incorporate bellows.
No, a guiro is not a woodwind instrument. It is a percussion instrument made from a hollowed-out gourd or wood, typically played by scraping a stick along its ridges to produce a sound. Woodwind instruments produce sound through the vibration of air in a tube, which is not the case for a guiro.

No. the accordion is not a woodwind instrument. Woodwind instruments are blown through, like the saxophone, clarinet, or flute. The accordion does not require blowing from your mouth. The accordion is in the free reed aerophone family, which means the noise/ air is made by bellows.
It is a woodwind instrument because, like other woodwinds, it also uses reeds. Think about a clarinet, for example. Clarinets are woodwinds because when you blow on them, the reed vibrates and makes a sound. Accordions are like having a bunch of different reeds all contained in one instrument. When you press a key down, it opens a reed so that air can flow over it and it can vibrate. Then you have to move the bellows to get air moving over the reed. Since it has reeds, it can be thought of as a woodwind instrument. However, it must be noted that the reeds are usually made of steel, not wood.
No, a trombone is not considered a woodwind instrument. It is actually classified as a brass instrument because it is played by blowing air through a mouthpiece to create sound.
Yes, a recorder is considered a woodwind instrument because it is played by blowing air into a mouthpiece to produce sound, similar to other woodwind instruments like the flute or clarinet.

No, it's a Keyboard instrument that utilises a bellows to pass air over a reed to make a note.
A musical instrument that is played by squeezing a bellows, which forces air through the instrument. Simple form of an accordion.
A bellows-mender is someone who repairs bellows, the instrument which puffs air into a fire to make it hotter. The bellows consists of two hinged pieces of wood with a leather bag attached to them, and the leather of the hinges and the bag was always wearing out.
Woodwind . originally made from bone, then wood, and now medal, usually silver The flute belongs to the woodwind (or better known wind) instrument family. It is a reedless instrument where sound is created by blowing air across an opening in the instrument.
