It depends, if it's an infant then it is usually a full immersion. If it is an adult, then it can be done with pouring. 'amud is "immersion" in English, but that doesn't have to be a full-body immersion. Your hands are 'amud in water when washing them, etc.

Hi Paul, your response brought me to John the Baptizer's words in regards to 'amud. Did he say I 'amud you WITH water or did he say I 'amud you IN water? The Peshitta reads "lkwn" which dukhrana.com shows to mean "to, for".
