In musical notation it is an arpeggio, a musical technique where notes in a chord are played or sung in sequence, one after the other, rather than all at once.

It's just the same as the straight arrow in my tabs. Jeff: It’s a slightly different way of indicating strum direction. It’s just the same as the straight arrow in my tabs.

It is a vertical wiggly line on the left side of a chord. It also has an arrow head either at the top or bottom. You can see it on page 6 of wwelti's classical tabs. http://ukulelehunt.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/solobuch.pdf What does it mean? I have come across a tab notation that I am unfamiliar with.

Your uke and your strings will affect how difficult it is and how clearly it sounds. With the trills, rather than lifting your finger straight off, you get a clearer sound if you pull downwards. So you're almost plucking the string with your fretting finger each time. Hope that helps. Yeah, this stuff is tricky.

I can barely do a hammer-on. My trills hardly trill - maybe for half a second. I can't imagine how the one in the example lasts so long. Maybe my uke is too crap? (asked hopefully) It's a cheapy.
