Not only the yoof my grown up sister spells it incorrectly. I think it's down to the fact that the word ect looks and sounds like a word rather than a shortening of two words et cetera.

Its one of 17 words in English that I cant remember the term for like lent for loaned.
He was Italian, and his Italian name was Colombo. Columbus is an Anglicisation.
