using "and others" rather than "et al."

MarisaMazzotta
Is there a citation style that uses the "and others" format, e.g., Jones and others (2002), rather than Jones et al. (2002)? If not, what do I need to change in the style code to create one? Thanks!

    See, e.g. MHRA:<term name="et-al">and others</term>

    note that for the most part, if you cite like
    Jones and others (2002)
    rather than
    (Jones and others 2002)
    you should use the "suppress author" button and type the name of the author in your word document.
    There are long discussions on this on the forum so if you're curious about details, reasons etc. search for those.

    Thank you noksagt - that worked.
