Answer:
questions like this get shipped to the guitar forum via UPS. Don't you worry 'bout a thang...
Answer:
Just play the G not at the third fret on the sixth (top) string along with the rest of the regular D chord. Whenever you see a / (slash) chord, just play the not beyond the slash as the bass note. It's pretty simple really.
Answer:
c2 = x35533
Answer:

Since the original poster claimed not to understand notation of this type, I'll try to explain the notation:
1) Read left to right, there are 6 characters referring to the six strings of a standard guitar tuned to standard tuning, starting with the low e string and moving toward the high E string.
2) Any number in a spot is an instruction to fret that string at the numbered fret. For instance, the notation: 222222 would indicate that one should fret every string at the 2nd fret.
3) A "0" means "open string" (not fretted, but still played). An "x" means "mute" (do not try to produce sound with this string while playing this chord).
So.... to decode the C2 chord x35533
1) the x means don't play (or, please mute) the low e string
2) fret the A string at the 3rd fret, as well as the B and high E strings
3) fret the D and G strings at the 5th fret
If you work this out, you'll find that it is best accomplished as a "barre" chord, using the pointer finger to do all the 3rd fret stopping.
The nice thing about guitar is that the above is not even close to being the "only" way to play a C2 (or Cadd9 or Csus2, which are probably more appropriate names depending on context). If I want the chord to "ring" some, I'll use more open strings, such as:
x32033 (with one open string)
x30033 (two open strings, omits the 3rd of the chord)
