XYZ

Alphabet's final trio

XYZ represents the final three letters of the alphabet, often used to indicate an unknown or unspecified sequence: Replace XYZ with your actual values.

In algebra, x, y, and z are conventional variables.

XYZ suggests something generic or placeholder: the XYZ corporation, some XYZ excuse.

To examine your XYZ is a euphemistic reminder that your fly is open.
