tuning with guitar


Hi,
If one chooses the tunig C F A d g c, the F string on the oud does it corresponds to the same pitch as the F on the 1st fret of the E string (thickest ) of the guitar?

thank you

thank you :)
English is not my native language so I understand now that my question could be a little confusing.
Of course what I meant was if it was the same F or an octave higher or lower.

Your question was clear, I think your english was fine--better than my portuguese!
It's the same pitch (same octave) as the 1st fret on the low E string.
So the A, D, and G strings are the same as guitar, and the high C is the same as the first fret on your B string.
