The word for today is…
guttural (adjective) –
1 : articulated in the throat
2 : being or marked by utterance that is strange, unpleasant, or disagreeable
Source : Merriam -Webster
Etymology : Though it is now used to describe many sounds or utterances which strike the listener as harsh or disagreeable, the adjective guttural was originally applied only to sounds and utterances produced in the throat. This is reflected in the word’s Latin root—guttur, meaning “throat.” Despite the similarity in sound, guttural is not related to the English word gutter, which comes (by way of Anglo-French) from Latin gutta, meaning “drop.”
