Pronunciation: [wˈɜːt pəzˈɛʃən ɒv] (IPA) 
The phrase "wert possession of" is a peculiar one in terms of spelling. The word "wert" is actually an archaic form of "were," which means "to be." The "t" at the end was used in Old English as a form of past tense. Meanwhile, "possession" is spelled as per standard English, where the "ss" is pronounced as a "sh" sound followed by the "e" sounding as "eh." Phonetically, the word is pronounced as /wərt pəˈzɛʃən əv/.
"Wert possession of" is a phrase that is composed of two distinct terms: "wert" and "possession of." The phrase derives from the verb "to be" in the past tense, predominantly used in archaic or poetic contexts. The term "wert" is an older form of the word "were," which is the second person singular past indicative of the verb "to be." In this context, it signifies a state of existence or a condition in the past.
"Possession of," on the other hand, refers to having ownership or control over something. It implies being in a state of having or holding onto an item, resource, or quality. It suggests the idea of being in the ownership or possession of a particular object, concept, or attribute.
When combined, the phrase "wert possession of" indicates that something or someone had ownership or control of some form in the past. It denotes a state or condition where a person or an entity was in the possession or control of something at a certain point in time. The usage of "wert possession of" is often found in older literature, poetry, or texts written in a style reminiscent of the past. Its presence within a sentence adds a touch of antiquity or poetic flair to the wording.
