The full form of Pros and cons is pro et contra.
It means : for and against.
The term has been in use since the 16th century and is a shortening of a Latin phrase.
Pros are arguments which aim to promote the issue, while cons suggest points against it. Considering the pros and cons of an issue is a very useful way to weigh the issue thoughtfully and reach an informed decision.
