decluttering
Colloquial term for the activity of discarding unnecessary possessions, often as a lifestyle trend. Similar to 断捨離 (danshari) but more casual.
I did some decluttering over the weekend and tidied up my room.
Decluttering has become a hobby, and I've started to enjoy having fewer things.
Standard spelling using 捨てる (to throw away) and 活 (activity).
Abbreviated spelling without okurigana; also seen.
Blend of 捨てる (suteru, 'to throw away') and 活動 (katsudō, 'activity'), abbreviated to 活 (katsu). A modern colloquial coinage.
