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.


Is is correct to put a period after etc then close the parenthesis then a period outside the parenthesis at the end of a sentence?

Actually it should look like this (cars, airplanes, trains, etc.). But if the sentence ends with an abbreviation, the single period will serve to end the sentence, as in cars, airplanes, trains, etc. You do not use double periods. You can, however, use a question mark or exclamation point after a period that ends a sentence. Were you talking about cars, airplanes, trains, etc.? If this looks unusual, it is because abbreviations, such as etc., are generally avoided at the ends of sentences.

No. You can never end a sentence with a preposition. Prepositions relate to place and/or time, examples being words like "at", "on", "in", "under", "during", "with", "while", etc.

One period. The period in etc. also functions as the period for the end of the sentence.

No. When you end a sentence that way you don't have a proper end. At "what" or "where" is left out. Your "at" needs a direct object.


Do you put another period at the end of a sentence that ends in the word etc.?

No, you do not put an extra period after "etc." since the period at the end of "etc." serves as the ending punctuation for the sentence.
