Many people in Tanzania and Kenya do not wash up in a sink. However, yes this could include dishes as well as pots and cups, etc.

how are dishes washed? In Bali, they have 3 sinks together that i think are mcuh more efficient than what we have in the US

What is the difference between "cleaning" and "washing"? It said "cleaning" was wrong, but in English it is interchangeable with "washing". I think either should be accepted unless there is an important distinction between the two in Swahili that I am not familiar with.
