Sacrifice stones. Literally 'thrown stones'. (From suteru so discarded, abandoned, or thrown away stones --DaveSigaty)

It is a big deal, especially in the middle game, to be able to distinguish between key stones, which for strategic reasons are not to be sacrificed (for example important cutting stones), and disposable stones, which will include some kikashi stones but are certainly not limited to those.
