      It sounds more like past tense “sank” which also makes more sense in context of the question.

      Some of the more cultural dialects of US English pronounce “sank” with two syllables: like “say-ingk

      “Saink” isn’t a bad way to spell it, either.

          No I’m with you, as a french speaker, it’s also hard to get the joke for some reason.
