How Do You Spell WERT CONTENT?

Pronunciation: [wˈɜːt kˈɒntɛnt] (IPA)

The spelling of the word "wert content" can be a bit confusing for those unfamiliar with Middle English orthography. The first part of the word, "wert," is pronounced /wət/ and is a variant of "were," meaning "were" or "was." The second part, "content," is pronounced /ˈkɒntɛnt/ and means "satisfied" or "pleased." When combined, "wert content" means "were satisfied" or "were pleased." Although the spelling may seem archaic, this phrase can still be found in literature and poetry from the Middle Ages.
