Explanation:
The generic name term for the various parts of a yagi (or similar) antenna is 'elements' - that includes the reflector, the dipole (which receives or delivers energy to the feed cable) and the directors.

'aleta' refers to a particular form of element used in some yagi antennas as a means of increasing the bandwidth.
