Please let me know how does চানেকীয়া শাক gets transliterated in English. This is in context of Portulaca oleracea. Don't know about transliteration but from my Useful Plant of India it is Noniya (perhaps first word) the second I guess should be saag Assamese name for plant is Noniya Could find it from online transliteration to be chanikya saag. Yes, noniya OR nuniya is a popular name for Portulaca oleracea in Bengal and Assam. Portulaca oleracea L.

Have set incremental goal ... first compiling names for the native flora that is found in my collection (Western Ghats in my vicinity) ... next, eFI & FOI ... can go at it with the only option ... slowly and steadily !!! Nooniya is not name we recognize in urban west bengal, namely mostly West Bengal and its vicinity... all saag sellers are village women who come to Calcutta markets with their haul of yesterday from their village tanks, riverbanks, forests.... 1: They and our non-english reading and speaking Bengali folks... call it LOONE saak লুনে শাক... so I wanted to be sure before I responded.... Supporting Reference for this is in a booklet called: " Banglar Saak" dated March 2003 published by The DEVELOPMENT Research Communication and Services Center, 18 b Gariahat Road, Dhakuria, Kolkata 700031. (I would like to send the pic of the cover and the page with this saak of the book but there is no option here to include an attachment, or I have just not found it, not smart enough I guess) !!! 2: Santhal tribals in Bengal call it Golgol-sag.. Reference: TRIBAL MEDICINE by Dr. DC Pal and SK Jain...page 216. published 1997 Kolkata.by Naya Prokas Kolkata ISN 81-85421-307.. 3: My servants recognize it, eat it and buy it sometimes...from our local market... There is one growing in my balcony at the base of my potted Adenium obesum....that single loone saag has also developed the telltale yellow tiny flowers... I would recognize portulaca any way... it was a common weed in upstate NY countryside and on many a weekends I have gone on hikes with my herbal medicine teachers, we would pick Portulaca among many things from the pristine woods, and eat them in our salad for lunch or add in the sandwiches... nowadays green grocers carry it all over NYC.... sorry to respond so late... but it took a while to dig out skinny botany books in Bengali script.. You must be right. My information Noniya as Assamese name is based on CSIR publication, Useful Plants of India. To me now, getting common names validated is seeming just as important as botanical names. Your elaborate noting has increased my confidence in pursuing compilation of plant names. The name noniya and its variants belong to Hindi speaking regions ... the neighbouring regions may have got influenced by it. Will make corrections in my notes. And yes, my source says Baraloniya in Bengali L should be logical: Baralaniya in Hindi Motiloni in Gujarati Brihalloni, lanika and lonamla in Sanskrit Lonak in Punjab We observe that the names in most of the languages have an adjective prefixed implying "large" OR "big". In due course of time we will discover other plant(s) which is known otherwise (small). Will make relevant changes in my notes. One of my Assamese friends transliterated চানেকীয়া শাক as Chanekiya Haak. And most probably this chanekiya haak OR chanikya saag is a generic name for sour greens (though not sure). ... just found from few resources on internet that smaller version of loniya OR luniya would be species of Oxalis ... there could possibly be some other plant(s) too. ... the name lonamla (Sanskrit: लोणाम्ला) is more apt for Oxalis pusilla as per online Sanskrit dictionaries, one of is Monier-Williams Dictionary <http://www.sanskrita.org/wiki/index.php/loNa>. Just now my another friend from Upper Assam informed some names for these plants: Portulaca oleracea: In Upper Assam they call it "Hanh-thengia" (because the leaves look like "Legs of a duck"), Hanh = Hans (Hindi) and Teng =Taang (Hindi) Bodo people of Assam call it "Mephrai". Oxalis corniculata is called as "Tengesi" in Upper Assam. 'Tenga' means 'Sour' in Assamese. Hope this will be an addition to your database.
