Sorterie

Sorterie refers to the act of sorting or categorizing items, often in a disorganized or haphazard manner. It can describe the process of sifting through a collection of things, whether physical objects or abstract concepts, to arrange them into groups based on certain characteristics. This can be a deliberate and systematic action, or it can occur more spontaneously. The term is sometimes used in a slightly informal or even colloquial context to describe a quick or less-than-perfect sorting effort. The outcome of a sorterie is typically a collection that is more organized than it was previously, even if the categorization is not exhaustive or perfectly precise. It implies a movement towards order from a state of disarray.
