en ventre sa mere

Read a random definition: drift of the forest

A quick definition of en ventre sa mere:

En ventre sa mere means that a baby is still inside their mother's tummy. This phrase is used when talking about the baby's rights. If the baby is born alive later on, they are still considered to have existed when their parent died. This is important for things like inheritance. It's like the baby was already there, even though they weren't born yet.

A more thorough explanation:

en ventre sa mere

En ventre sa mere means "in the mother's womb" in Law French. It refers to an unborn child and is often used when discussing the rights of that child. If a child is en ventre sa mere at the time of a person's death and is later born alive, the child is considered to have existed at the time of the person's death for inheritance purposes.

Example 1: A woman is pregnant when her father dies. If the baby is born alive, it is entitled to a share of the inheritance because it was en ventre sa mere at the time of the father's death.

Example 2: A couple is going through a divorce, and the wife is pregnant. The court must consider the rights of the unborn child, who is en ventre sa mere, when making decisions about custody and support.

These examples illustrate how the term en ventre sa mere is used in legal contexts to refer to an unborn child and how the child's rights are protected even before they are born.
