ect.

The stupid person way to abbreviate "et cetera". The "et" standing for the Latin word "et" and the "c." standing for the Latin word "cētera", hence "etc." and NOT "ect."

Child #1: I don't understand why people call me stupid, dumb, and ect.

Child #2: Maybe it's because you spelled "etc." incorrectly, and put an "and" before the et cetera (which is redundant).

Child #1: That explains it.
