Re: retroflex consonants

Jan van Steenbergen scripsit:

<<[s] and [z] are dental. And what distinguishes it from *our* [s] and [z]
is
probably something in the field of apicality/laminality.>>

Btw, does somebody know, what is the difference (in phonetic terms) between
Basque /z/, /s/ and /x/? (I, certainly, mean Euskara Batua). I cleary hear
the difference and can reproduce it, but what are the labels???
