Hi there I guess your a Nursing student. I have just been googling to find the same answer too. The strings are tied around a persons wrists at important occasions such as birthdays, promotions, weddings and so forth. They are believed to "tie in the soul" so it doesn't get lost. They should never be cut off, they simply wear off in time. If the doctor had cut the strings, she would have jeopardized the infant's life from the Tepses' perspective. From Jodie

I have two Denver ukuleles with different strings One has black strings the other has clear tighter strings What is the difference and which one's better?

The difference is the color. Both are made of nylon polymers. You have to decide which set of strings you like best. If the Ukes are identical, you can learn which of the two you like best and try to duplicate them. Several manufacturers make both clear/white strings and black strings. They can also be found in brown in some places. The color is simply a matter of what you think looks best on the ukulele, but in most cases, players are more interested in how they sound then how they look.
