Pewts from an Unborn Child

My professor yesterday was talking about how a particular issue becomes a problem especially with fetus pewts. I looked at the girl next to me and she slowly looked at me with a very confused look on her face. "What is she talking about?" she asked me.

What is a pewt? And why do fetuses have them? And why is this legal issue relevant to those pewts?

Pewts is not a word, according to dictionary dot com. So that couldn't be what she said. Other possibilities:

Piutes: members of a group of North American Indians of the Uto-Aztecan family dwelling in California, Nevada, Utah, and Arizona.

Fetus Piutes: unborn Utes.




Pewits: Any of several Old World birds of the genus Vanellus related to the plovers, especially V. vanellus, having a narrow crest and erratic flight behavior

Fetus Pewits: Plover eggs
















Puce: a dark brown or purplish color

Fetus Puce: unborn poo

I'm not sure how these things relate to an ethics class, but I'll leave that up to your imagination.

*Also, it became clear after about one second that the professor had said "fee disputes." Just in case you were wondering.
