hot water sink tap?

why is the tap only turning a bit & water just dribbles out.Dont know the name of the washbase.

The tap insert, as it is called, is getting gummed up with limescale or similar - its also likely that the washer has become damaged. You can buy new inserts (but there are several different types) which will sort things out. Naturally you will have to isolate your hot water supply before taking anything apart.
