Plural of foetor; multiple foul or putrid smells.
From Latin 'fotor' (bad smell) with English pluralization '-s' added. In formal or archaic English, this would be the plural form of the singular 'foetor.'
While this is technically the proper plural, you'll rarely see it used because 'foetor' itself is archaic—modern speakers just say 'stinks' or 'bad smells' instead of 'foetors,' showing how vocabulary dies out when we find simpler synonyms.
