How Do You Spell WERT CONTRACTED?
Pronunciation: [wˈɜːt kəntɹˈaktɪd] (IPA) 
The spelling of the word "wert contracted" may be confusing to some due to the contraction of "wert" from "were" and the emphasis placed on the "t" sound. The IPA phonetic transcription for this word is /wɜrt kənˈtræktɪd/, which indicates that the stress is on the second syllable and the "t" sound is pronounced clearly at the end of "wert" and the beginning of "contracted". This contraction is commonly used in literature and poetry to maintain meter and rhyme schemes.
