Abbr. that often follows a comma

ETC

Think of the Latin phrase that means "and the rest" and is commonly used to indicate a continuing list without naming every item.

This clue is looking for a common abbreviation that usually appears after a comma in lists or sentences. "Etc" (short for et cetera) fits perfectly because it’s often tacked on at the end of a series—like "apples, oranges, etc"—to mean "and so on." The clue hints at its placement (after a comma) rather than its meaning, making it a straightforward abbreviation puzzle. No wordplay here, just a direct nod to how we use it in writing.
