Names of Plants in India :: Tamil names for Alstonia venenata

[Dinesh Valke]

Dear friends,

Two names for Alstonia venenata at ENVIS-FRLHT liste are:

1. sinnappalai

Would it be written in Tamil script like this: சின்னப்பாலை ?

சின்ன (chinna) = small, little

பாலை (palai) = could be a generic name for Alstonia spp. and some other plants, though not sure.

2. palamunnipalai

பழமுண்ணிப்பாலை , perhaps is shared with Mimusops kauki [syn. of Manilkara kauki (L.) Dubard]

Please validate.

Regards.

Dinesh

Dinesh ji,

Both the names, சின்னப்பாலை and பழமுண்ணிப்பாலை, sound correct!

Thank you very very much Vijayasankar ji.

I see two spelling variants:

சிந்நப்பாலை & சிந்நபால்லை ... both appear on the same page, 1) in title and 2) in body text.

I have a feeling both must be in error.

Regards.

Agreeing with you Dinesh ji, சின்னப்பாலை is the correct one and the other two scripts don't make sense to me either.
