dental/guttural


Explanation:
The terms (including labial) stay the same, though please note spelling change --- 2 t's in 'guttural' (I wonder if that isn't a typo in the French anyway?)

Oh, so I DON\'T try hard, is that it? What makes you think it\'s any more effortless for me than the others?

Seriously, though --- I\'d like to wish you all a wonderful Merry Christmas (or whatever your own particular festival may be) and every happiness in the New Year. :-)
