WAST TURNED TOWARD Meaning and
Definition
-
"Wast turned toward" is an archaic phrase used in Old English to describe the act of directing one's attention or focus towards something or someone. The term "wast" refers to the second-person singular past tense of the verb "to be," which was commonly used in Old English. It is derived from the Old English word "wǣron," which means "were," and is conjugated to match the past tense of "thou" (an archaic word for "you").
The phrase "turned toward" implies a deliberate action or movement of redirecting one's gaze, thoughts, or interests to face or consider a specific object or subject. It suggests an intentional shift in one's mental or visual attention, indicating an engagement or fascination with the chosen focus. The word "toward" suggests a movement in the direction of the chosen object or subject, implying a sense of purposeful or active involvement.
In modern usage, "wast turned toward" is often replaced with the phrase "were turned toward" or "was turned toward," as the pronoun "wast" and the conjugated verb form "thou" are no longer used in contemporary English. However, the phrase still conveys the notion of actively directing one's attention or focus towards something.
