It stands for the latin phrase "et cetera" literally meaning "and the rest". It is used in common english meaning "and so forth for other unspecified things of the same class".
E.g. The farm had sheep, cows, pigs, horses, etc.

It's an abbreviation for et cetera, Latin words which are literally translated "and others".

It means "and so on", or "continuing in the same way".
