The spelling of the phrase "wast remodeled" might look a little strange to some English speakers. However, it's simply an archaic way of saying "was remodeled." The key difference is the use of "wast" instead of "was." In IPA phonetic transcription, the pronunciation of "wast" would be /wɑst/, while "was" is pronounced /wʌz/. This difference in pronunciation reflects the evolution of English spelling over time!
