Their are multiple answers to this question.
A five-string banjo, most common in country music would most likely be played in one of two styles. The older style, usually called clawhammer or frailing, is a repetitive strum where the fingernails brush down across the strings, or hit single strings on the same downward stroke.
The modern country style popularized by Earl Scruggs is called three-finger style, bluegrass style, or simply "picking". You wear three picks, on your thumb and first two fingers. Strings are individually plucked in fast succession to create a smooth rolling pattern.
There are also four-string banjos commonly used for jazz or Celtic genres where the banjo is strummed using a plectrum (pick).

oh don't get me started on this...ok I'll tell you, originally rare planned that once you get all the SnS items you transport them to banjo-tooie.so you take out banjo-kazooie while the n64 was still on and put in banjo-tooie in less than 5 seconds but when Nintendo found this out they said it would damage the consle so that idea was scrapped.so what happens next?we go to banjo-tooie there were only three eggs and the ice key but later on in the game you'll find humba wumba in pine grove wanting the mega glowbo, this is where the ice key comes in, once you learn the talon torpedo in jolly rogers lagoon you would go back to glitter gulch mine go into the waterfall cavern and smash the rock which leads to hailfire peaks icy side then you should see a large ice door,unlock it with the ice key and youll find the mega glowbo bring it to wumba and you get dragon kazooie. but what about the eggs? you bring them to heggy in wooden hollow she will hatch 2 of them containing breegull bash and homing eggs kazooie hatches the next one with jinjo as a multiplayer character!yay! what about the others? they contain a secret not yet attempted devil bottles faster swimming/extra bubbles (actually in the game)no clue whats in the last one but do the same thing in xbox live version for stop n swop 2 but right now we go to banjo-kazooie nuts and bolts. in banjo-kazooie xbox live get all the stop n swop items and banjo transports them to nuts&bolts(don't ask me how) in the spots in showdown town go to all the spots with grafitti of SnS items there should be mumbo crates there bring them to mumbo and he gives you stop n swop vhiecle parts. now stop n swop 2 features 3 eggs only;a bronze,gold,and silver and i can't remember what happens next though you should figure out yourself for now cuz it's like 1:00am right now but according to the new banjo-kazooie game coming out theres stop n swop in that game no one knows yet .only time will tell.......

Capo is short for the Italian word capotasto, meaning head of the fretboard. It is a device that fastens onto the fretboard to shorten the playing length of the strings and rising the pitch.

A banjo ukulele is a small banjo type body strung like an ukulele. It became popular in the 20's and 30's as being louder than a uke and carrying better in the music halls in the days before microphones. They are tuned like an ukulele and are played the same way. The link below shows a banjo ukulele being played.
Probably the most famous person to play the banjo ukulele is George Formby, a very popular movie actor in Great Britain.

Asked by Wiki User
Today, the k is silent. We don't say kuh-nock or kuh-nee, but we used to. See below.
AnswerActually, this is due to historical change. English is a Germanic language, and the word knight is an old Germanic word (not borrowed from German). In the Old English, just like in German, the consonant k was pronounced together with the n. The sound disappeared from pronunciation only during 17th and 18th centuries, but as the spelling had already been set, the old pronunciation remained in the written form.
This is the case with all words beginning with "kn-" in English. Knee, knot, knight, knob etc. all were just few hundreds years ago pronounced with [kn] sound. This pronunciation still prevails in some forms of Scots.
So, indeed, when Shakespeare wrote "knight", he pronounced it more or less like [knIiht] (k-ne-ee-ht).

I have one.
They're "Starter" banjos.
They're not that valuable. I bought one new for $100.
Thank so much for your reply, I appreciate it!
