I am fairly sure that 'sin;' just means 'sign'. The whole thing means, go back from the sign, to the end of the piece.
I'm not sure about the exact rules, but I have an opinion as a performer. If a piece has a coda following the DC or DS it is nice to be reminded or warned again. Same rule of thumb with an "al fine" situation, it just helps clarify the "road map" for the piece of music being performed.
In any music DC Al Fine means play through the end, and then repeat but only play to the Fine.
DC in music stands for Da Capo, which is Italian for "go back to the beginning".Often, DC is used along with DC al Fine, meaning Da Capo al Fine, which means go the the beginning and continue to the "fine", which is the ending.Constrast this with DS, meaning Da Segno, which means go back to the sign, or DS al Fine which means go back to the sign and continue to the ending.Sometimes, there is a coda, which is an alternate ending, somewhat like a secondary or tertiary repeat.
In Liszt's "Waldesrauschen," the phrase "sin' al fine del pezzo" translates to "without stopping until the end of the piece." This instruction indicates that the performer should maintain a continuous sound or flow, likely suggesting that any pedal usage should sustain the music's expressiveness and fluidity right through to the conclusion of the work. It emphasizes the importance of connectivity in the phrasing and overall performance.
D.C. stands for del capo. Del Capo basically means to go back to the beginning. al Fine means- to (the place where it says) fine. All together, DC al fine means- go back to the beginning and play till the fine.
"DS al Coda" and "DC al Fine" are musical notations used in sheet music. "DS al Coda" (Dal Segno al Coda) instructs musicians to return to a specific sign (the segno) and then proceed to the Coda section. In contrast, "DC al Fine" (Da Capo al Fine) directs musicians to go back to the beginning of the piece and play until they reach the "fine" marking, which indicates the end of the piece. Essentially, DS al Coda involves a return to a specific point with a jump to the Coda, while DC al Fine is a straightforward return to the start and continuation to the end.
D.S. al fine ("From the sign to the end") is a musical direction. It means that when you reach the D.S. al fine, you should go back to the sign (which is ignored the first time through) and play until you get to the measure marked "fine." Play the fine measure, then stop playing as "fine" marks the end of the piece.
"D.C. (Da Capo) al fine" is Italian as are many other music terms and literally it means: From the beginnig to the "fine".

I have been playing the cello for two years and same with the guitar, Al Fine is pronounced Al fee-nay
D.S. al Coda = Dal Segno al Coda It means from the sign to the coda.
