As local beliefs, both (shamans and shamanic practices) cannot be judged from the point of view of scientific rationality because they have their reason and logic which is called rationality behind irrationality. This article describes terms in the Ngaju Dayak language related to plants used for medicinal purposes by the ethnic community. Data were collected through participant and non-participant observations and interviews and analysis of ritual spells uttered by traditional healers. Three important elements in the relationship between ethnic culture and ethnobotanical language in Dayak Ngaju were identified, namely (1) the names of medicinal plants and their components and functions as medicine; (2) terms used for plants based on their ecology: color, place of growth, shape, and/or gender; (3) socio-cultural values expressed in local wisdom and their implications for the utilization and preservation of plant life in the area.
