ECT'S
The stupid person way to
abbreviate "
et cetera". The "et" standing for the Latin word "et" and the "c." standing for the Latin word "cē
tera", hence "etc." and NOT "ect."

bastardisation of 'etc.' or
et cetera.

ect. is an often falsely used abbreviation for
et cetera which means "and so on/forth".
Also it is not one word as
implied by the most upvoted definition and you DON'T use "and" in front of it, since "
et" means "and" in Latin.
Example:
If I were rich I would do all that
douchey rich-people stuff like drinking
Dom Pérignon all day etc.
WRONG: I ate so much healthy stuff like bananas,
apples and ect

How REALLY stupid people (usually americans)
abbreviate the phrase “
et cetera” because they think, for some reason,
the C comes before the T. Also usually said after they mention only one thing in a list because they can’t think of anything else.
Example:
“What are your hobbies?”
I like reading,
ect
“…
that’s it?”
NO I SAID
ECT!!!

The education system of Europe uses the ECTS (short for European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System)
is a system that
binds points to subjects. If you pass a certain subject let's say philosophy, you get 2 or 4 ECTS point. Most courses in Europe usually have 60 points per semester per course for a total of
240 points in 4 years which university students have to get in order to get their bachelors degree
Example:
Yoooo bro how many ECTS have you
piled up this far?
Around
48 fam, I passed the year!
