Subject: [INDOLOGY] Pancha -Skandha in Mahayana Buddhism

The 5 skandhas or aggregates in Buddhism refers to Rupa,Vedana,Sangnya,Samskara,and Vigyan. The
apporxiamate English equivalent of Sangnya ,which I could make out is - definition.

Can anybody suggest any other term for Sangnya?

Vetter (2000)* uses 'ideation'.
