violin

A beautiful bowed four-stringed instrument (more strings on the Norwegian variety, the Hardanger fiddle or hardingfele) that is incredibly difficult to play well. There are quite a number of musical pieces that show the technical prowess of players of this instrument.

John's learning to play the violin, and he's getting better and better at it.

violince

What any nearby listeners might be driven to from hearing horrendously-poor fiddle-playing.

Jack Benny was actually quite an accomplished musician (you have to be a good instrument-performer in order to "do well at playing poorly" --- i.e., play said instrument in a humorously-awful way that will make your listeners laugh), and so it's unlikely that any members of his audience would have felt the need to resort to violince.

Wrist Violin

A slang term for someone cutting their wrists, as it appears like someone playing a violin with their veins as the string and the blade as the bow.
Not to be confused with the gesture of the same name.
