Etc is an abbreviation for Et Cetera, a Latin saying that means "and other things", but people commonly use it when they can't think of anything else to put on a list, but know they are other things that can go on that list. During the example I am stating, between these: *, an asterisk, means that he/she is thinking, not speaking.
"Today I ate cereal, a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, a cup of yogurt, *I can't remember what else I ate, but I remember eating something else! I have an idea.* etc."
Without the *Thinking*, this is what he/she said:
"Today I ate cereal, a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, a cup of yogurt, etc."

"Etc.", with a period included, means "and so on".
The period serves no purpose, and it is commonly dropped, particularly in places such as Twitter, where space is at a premium. The requirement for a period at the end in order to be proper needs to be dropped.

There are many names for colors, such as red, blue, green, orange, etc, but there are far more colors than there are names.
