SINK: The
American Sign Language (ASL) sign for "sink"
The word sink has different meanings. You should sign "sink" in a way that
matches your meaning.
Often "sink" is just spelled out (S-I-N-K) since it is a relatively
short word and it is actually easier (for skilled fingerspellers) to spell
"sink" with one hand than to do a two handed sign depicting a sink.
