How to use sink in in a sentence?

  1. Clara Pitts:

    I hadn’t heard anything about a shortage, i didn’t really take it seriously at first until later that week – maybe three or four days later – when I started to hear news about the shortage, and it really started to sink in.

  2. Ajab Singh:

    One daughter was lying dead in one room and the wedding of another was going on in another room. We have never experienced such mixed emotions, the grief over her death and the happiness of the wedding has yet to sink in.

  3. Suni Lee:

    There was a point in time where I wanted to quit and I just didn't think I would ever get here, so there's definitely a lot of emotions. But I'm super proud of Suni Lee for sticking with it and believing in Suni Lee because this medal would not be possible without my coaches, the medical team, Yeev Thoj. It's just so surreal, and I haven't even let it sink in yet.

  4. Quinn Harris/Getty Images:

    I did not think we’d be talking about this after this game. I'm gonna take some time and have conversations with the folks around here, and then take some time away and make a decision -- obviously before free agency or anything kinda gets going on that front, it's fresh right now. It's a little shocking for sure. Definitely was hoping to have a nice week after the NFC Championship to enjoy the lead up [to the Super Bowl] and start contemplating some things, so I haven't even let the moment really sink in yet.

  5. The Jolliff:

    I remember leaving there and my husband and I just sat in our car for 45 minutes letting it sink in, at that point it felt as if there was so little hope.
