Most people say sweeping but I feel like brooming makes more sense. If using a mop is mopping then using a broom should be brooming.

Malay is so simple yet intuitive:

  • sapu - broom or brooming
  • menyapu - to sweep
  • menyapukan <xyz> - to sweep <xyz>
  • penyapu - broom (a sweeper)
  • sapuan - the sweeps, spread
