Tang
合什 (v) [hap6 sap6] : bring one's two palms together ( for greeting, pleading or most commonly, praying)
I can't find 合什 in CantoDic,
I can't find the official translation on the web,
I can only guess:
" touch palms"
" bring palms together"
" make a praying gesture"
I really want to know what is the official translation in Dictionaries.

合十 合爪; 合掌 To bring the ten fingers or two palms together; a monk's salutation.
