There is no symbol for "element", other than using a placeholder. For example, if you want to refer to the oxides of group II metals, you might use the generic formula "MO."
Some common placeholders are M and X for a generic metal and nonmetal (especially a halogen) respectively. A and B are also pretty common for any kind of generic element.
The symbol for most elements, in the English speaking world, are one or two letters of their name. The symbols for some elements are based on their Latin names, and in the case of tungsten on its German name.
Recently discovered elements whose names have not yet been agreed by IUPAC have three-letter names. However, the names for the last four elements 113, 115, 117 and 118 were approved in June 2016.
The symbol for elements is a one- or two-letter abbreviation that represents the element. It is used in the Periodic Table to identify each element uniquely.
