Do you need a comma after etc?
you need a period because etc. is an abbreviation for etcetera.
Do you need a comma befort etc?
Not necessarily. There is no word or phrase in English that requires a comma. More importantly, however, avoid contractions and abbreviations in formal writing. Instead, use " and so forth," or " and the rest."Typically, the abbreviation etc. is used to denote the continuation of a series. As the elements of a series are separated by commas, then yes, a comma is called for in front of etc. For example, in the sentence below:I like all sorts of fruit: blueberries, strawberries, watermelon, etc.
Is a period needed after the word etc?
Do I need to use a period after the abbreviation of the word etc.? What is the correct punctuation for ending a sentence with etc.?
Is a comma used before etc in a sentence?
Yes, a comma is used before "etc" when it is placed in the middle of a sentence, as it indicates the continuation of a list. For example, "I need to buy apples, oranges, bananas, etc., for the party."
If etc is at the end of a sentence in parentheses is there 2 periods?
No, if "etc." is at the end of a sentence in parentheses, you only need one period. The period in "etc." serves as the punctuation for the abbreviation, and there is no need for an additional period to end the sentence.
Do you add a comma before Jr or Sr or III in a name?
No comma is necessary before "Jr.", "Sr.", and the like. No comma has ever been necessary before "III", "IV", etc. From the Chicago Manual of Style (http://ow.ly/gcv0):But please note that within text, if you decide to use the more traditional comma before Jr. or Sr., the function of the comma is to set off these abbreviations, so an additional comma is needed after the abbreviation if the sentence continues (as in my first sentence above).
If you end a sentence with an abbreviation do you place an additional period after it?
No, you do not need to place an additional period after an abbreviation if the abbreviation already includes a period at the end, like "etc.". Just use one period to end the sentence.
Does Included but not limited to need a comma?
To be grammatically correct, yes. The phrase needs a comma. Anytime you use the word "but" in the middle of a sentence that connects two separate sentence topics together in one sentence without making a new sentence, you need a comma. For example: "The symptoms of the Bubonic plague include, but are not limited to: fever, chills, black pustule's, nausea, death, etc." "I grow weary of performing such mundane tasks as sitting and doing nothing, but I need the money so I will perform them nonetheless."
Do you put another period at the end of a sentence that ends in the word etc if etc is in parenthesis?
No, you do not need to add an additional period if "etc." is within parentheses at the end of a sentence. The period that ends the abbreviation "etc." also serves as the sentence-ending punctuation.
Is there a comma after etc?
"Etc" will usually come at the end of a list, so no. I believe that it is optional to put a period after it if it is not at the end of a sentence.
Do you put a period after etc if it is not at the end of the sentence?
Yes. Etc. is an abbreviation. yes yes yes yes yes
How do you use etc at the end of a sentence?
Twice, with a comma before and between, like this: The frumpy lecturer went boringly on and on ad infinitum and even beyond, etc, etc.
