What is the English term for lampunaya leaves?

"Lampunaya leaves" is the name used in the Philippines for the leaves of a specific plant. There isn't a single, universally accepted English term for these leaves.

Here's what you need to know to find the right term:

1. The Plant: "Lampunaya" usually refers to "Ugnayan" (scientific name: *Vitex negundo*). This is a shrub or small tree commonly found in the Philippines.

2. The Leaves: In English, "Ugnayan" leaves are often referred to as "Five-leaved chastetree leaves" or "Negundo leaves", based on the plant's scientific name.

3. Alternative Names: You may also find "Lampunaya leaves" referred to as:

* "Lagundi leaves" (although this is technically a different plant, *Vitex trifolia*)

* "Chaste Tree leaves" (a general term for *Vitex* species)

4. Context is Key: The best way to find the appropriate English term for "Lampunaya leaves" is to consider the context in which you are using the term. For example, if you're looking for information on the medicinal uses of the leaves, "Five-leaved chastetree leaves" or "Negundo leaves" might be the most relevant.
