If you can appreciate that if you take someone's temperature in the mouth it may be not be accurate as they may have recently drunk a thick shake or an icy drink, the basal temperature is a fancy way of stating the real core temperature of the human body, without any interference. That's why rectal thermometers (up the bum) provide a more accurate reading of the core temperature than oral (mouth) ones. 'Basal' just means base.
