How to use "Dunk" in context?
Dunking is a physical activity in which a person takes a breath and dives or throws themselves into a water or other surface. The person's head and upper body enter the water first, followed immediately by their lower body.
There are many variations of the dunk, including the vertical dunk, which occurs when a player dives below the surface of the water and comes up prematurely, and the bunny dunk, which is when a player dives beneath the surface of the water, pops up quickly, and throws their head and body backwards.
