Etymology
From, , from , an abbreviation of.

Phrase

 * 1) And so on: used to note that the rest of a list or piece of information has been left out on the assumption that it is similar or already known.

Usage notes

 * "Etc." is typically read out as the full Latin phrase ' rather than as letters (as with "i.e.") or as a contraction (as with "et seq."). It is, however, sometimes read out as its English calque ' (as with "e.g.").
 * In Latin, refers solely to other things. It is therefore properly avoided in lists of people, where "et al." (that is, ) is used instead. "Et al." is thus sometimes sharply distinguished from "etc." in English, although the same abbreviation can also stand for the Latin, which is a synonym of "etc."
 * Because "etc." effectively makes a list exhaustive, it is properly avoided when using other abbreviations (such as "e.g." and "viz.") that offer partial examples. If the "etc." is desired, "i.e." may be used in their places.
 * Some speakers use a sound in place of the  in the first word. This is usually proscribed and somewhat stigmatized. It is represented in eye dialect as "excetera", "exetera", or "ekcetera".
