-*'''Wort''' ([[IPA chart for English|pronounced]] {{IPA|[wɜ(r)t]}}) (to rhyme with dirt or word, not wart or ward) is the liquid extracted by the process of [[worting]], the [[mash|mashing]] of [[malted]] [[barley]] to use in [[brewing]] [[beer]]. Adding other grains to the barley is used for some varietal beers ([[wheat beer]] and [[oatmeal stout]], for example) or, more commonly, to cheapen the ingredients, as in the case of most beer produced by large breweries in [[North America]]. It is known firstly as sweet wort and then hopped wort after [[hops]] have been added at the boiling process.  Wort contains [[sugar]]s that will be fermented by [[yeast]] added once the solution has cooled down sufficiently to allow the yeast to survive.

-*'''[[Wort plants|Wort]]''' is an old [[English language|English]] word meaning "[[herb]]" or "[[plant]]". It stems from [[Old English language|Old English]] ''wyrt'' (<[[Proto-Indo-European language|PIE]] ''*werad-'', 'branch, root'), meaning a plant or herb. It is used chiefly in combination: [[Dragonwort]], [[St. John's Wort]] are two examples. See [[Wort plants]] for a full list.

-*'''[[WORT]]''' is a listener-sponsored [[community radio]] station located in [[Madison, WI]].  On the air since 1975, [[WORT]] broadcasts a 2000-watt signal at 89.9 FM.

-*'''Wort''' also refers to the video game series [[Halo (video game series)|Halo]], where in the game "Elites" yell this word. In several interviews it was revealed that this is merely the word "[[go]]" reversed. Its inherent significance is ambiguous, as it is used as a battle cry, cheer, and [[Non sequitur (absurdism)|non sequitur]] almost interchangeably.
