''Viz.'' is the medieval [[scribal abbreviation]] for ''videlicet''.

Cobham Brewer 1810–1897. Dictionary of Phrase and Fable, the same abbreviation mark was used for habet (hab3) and omnibus (omnib3).</ref>

''Videlicet'' is a [[contraction (grammar)|contraction]] of Classical Latin ''vidēre licet'', which meant “it may be seen, evidently, clearly” (''vidēre'', to see; ''licet'', third person singular present tense of ''licēre'', to be permitted). In Latin, ''videlicet'' was used to confirm a previous sentence or to state its contrary. -->
