WHAT DOES CORONAL CONSONANT MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Coronal consonant

Coronal consonants are consonants articulated with the flexible front part of the tongue. Only the coronal consonants can be divided into apical, laminal, domed, or subapical, as well as a few rarer orientations, because only the front of the tongue has such dexterity. Coronals have another dimension, grooved, that is used to make sibilants in combination with the orientations above. In Arabic and Maltese philology, the sun letters transcribe coronal consonants. In Australian languages, coronals contrast with peripheral consonants.

Definition of coronal consonant in the English dictionary
