Usage

A common mispronunciation of et cetera involves replacing the t in et with a k. This follows a process known as assimilation by which sounds become easier for the speaker to articulate

Origin

Latin, from et 'and' and cetera 'the rest' (neuter plural of ceterus 'left over').

Usage

Et cetera (a Latin phrase meaning ‘and the other things, the rest’) is sometimes mispronounced ‘ ex cetera,’ and its abbreviation, properly etc., is often misspelled ‘ect.’ The phrase ‘and et cetera’ is redundant, for et means ‘and’ in Latin. This abbreviation should be used for things, not for people. Et al. (an abbreviation of et alii, ‘and other people, and others’) is properly used for others (people) too numerous to mention, as in a list of multiple authors: Bancroft, Fordwick, et al. In general, both terms (and their abbreviations) are common enough that it is not necessary to italicize or underline them

Origin

Late Middle English: Latin, from et ‘and’ and cetera ‘the rest’ (neuter plural of ceterus ‘left over’).
