Look up et cetera in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
Et cetera (English: /ɛtˈsɛtərə, ɛk-/, Latin: [ɛt ˈkeːtɛra]), abbreviated to etc., et cet., &c. or &c,[1][2] is a Latin expression that is used in English to mean "and all the rest". "&" is a ligature of "et." Translated literally from Latin, et can mean 'and', while cētĕra can mean 'the rest'; thus, the expression translates to 'and the rest'.
Et cetera is a calque (loanword/phrase) of the Koine Greek καὶ τὰ ἕτερα (kai ta hetera) meaning 'and the other things'. The typical Modern Greek form is και τα λοιπά (kai ta loipá), 'and the remainder'.
