https://www.reddit.com/r/japanlife/comments/vpz7nb/comment/ien1vdq/?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=web2x&amp;context=3 I often have to deal with 反動減. This always seems to get translated as "reactionary decline", but that's unattested in my view; I've seen it used a lot, but only ever on .jp websites. The way I translate it depends on the situation and space constraints (it usually appears in ghastly powerpoint presentations). I usually go with "relative to last year's..." "comedown from..." etc., but I can never find a way to convey it in the equivalent brevity.</upd_refs>

<upd_detl>Maybe this works?</upd_detl>
<upd_refs>Reverso goes for "reactionary decline", but it doesn't mean much in English.</upd_refs>
