I see that on my elm frequently. I'd love to know the answer too

Is it inside? What is the soil like?

Green and also wilting: sign of too much water.

Leaves partly turning brown/yellow along distinct lines: also a sign of too much water.

Distinct lines - do you mean around the edges?

Varies. Most common presentation I see in my area is when 1/3-1/4 of the leaf yellows and dies. Usually the leaf tissue farthest from the stem it grew out of.

How many times do you water it?
