Etymology of WERT PRESENT

"Wert present" is not a widely used phrase in English, and it does not have a clear etymology. It seems to be a combination of two separate words: "wert" and "present".

"Wert" is an archaic form of the verb "are" used in the past tense second-person singular. It is predominantly found in older forms of English, particularly in works like Shakespeare's plays.

"Present" comes from the Latin word "praesentare", meaning "to show" or "to present". It entered the English language through Old French and Middle English.

Combining these two words, "wert present" essentially means "you were present" in an older form of English. However, it is not used in modern English and is unlikely to be encountered in everyday speech or writing.
