Introduction to the Ukulele


Today, I learned something in my ukulele lessons: how to mute the ukulele. It might seem like an odd question to answer, but it's a very simple lesson that's surprisingly difficult to master. On my first day, I learned many things. But today, I surprisingly learned how to mute the ukulele.

It may not seem surprising because all beginners start by learning how to mute. In fact, teachers find it quite challenging to teach this to their students. They try to show and explain how to play the ukulele in various ways, but they often forget one thing – the word "mute." Missing this small detail from the lesson makes it hard for beginners to get started.

By omitting the term "mute" from the lessons, it becomes difficult for beginners to progress. Well, today, you have an exercise – learn how to mute the ukulele.

There are a few beginner songs you can play on the ukulele. One of them is the "Happy Birthday Song" and many other songs as well. The songs you prefer will match your taste, and they may vary from place to place, or depending on the teacher.

Best wishes to everyone who wants to play the ukulele. Don't forget to subscribe, share, like, and comment. Until we meet again, complete today's exercise. The first lesson on the ukulele will be posted soon on our blog and my YouTube channel.

The Taliban

This isn't the time to talk of any investments. First and foremost you have to show leadership to attract any investments. Not just saying we welcome anybody. This isn't foreign policy. That means subtly saying in the future we will allow anyone to use our country as a base to carry out any terrorist activity. This will create instability in the region from drugs, weapons and equipment. Can you introduce us to the team probing into the killing of Ayman al-Zawahiri? It's almost one year completed you still act like a group. Can you call for a referendum because you say that the people must want education for girls and women. Can you bring your people to vote whether they want education for girls and women? Just saying that people must decide on women and girls education, who are these people? Are they people in your group or the afghan population? You are open to have any agreement with anyone, but for this region we need openness for anyone in this region to tru...
