Hammer-ons and pull-offs are shown with a slur over the notes. Only the first note is plucked by the picking hand

Slides are performed by playing the first note then sliding the fretting finger up to the second note
Trills
Trills are performed by rapidly alternating between the two notes shown using hammer-ons and pull-offs
