What does it mean when two chords (i.e. F/C) are used? How does one play 'em?
I'm havin' enough trouble playin' one at a time. ld:

Those are called slash chords. The letter following the slash is the bass note... which isn't always playable on uke. Pretty much the only time I use them is when playing low G, and even that is pretty rare.
So we Ukers don't bother with 'em? The book I was usin' wasn't a Uke book--probably guitar chords. ld:
Thanks for the help. I can understand "ignore the second chord", and I will! ld:
Good choice! But, it would be better to be clear that the "C" to the right of the slash is a note, not a chord. It describes an F chord in second inversion, that is, with the C as the bass note.
