What does "as it were" mean?

To describe in a "past tense" state.

To say something "Was" something else.

And if you are not careful with your definitions, you could end up making a separate definition for another word because you used mixed up "were" with "where."

As it were

An extremely British way of saying "basically", "in a sense", "in a way", "in a manner of speaking", or "idiomatically", almost always used at the end of a sentence. It's often stuffed into a conversation when the speaker is having a difficult time expressing what they really mean in precise language, and it can take the place of "um" when used habitually to keep words flowing in the absence of thought.

He's a bit shy. He doesn't want to upset the apple cart, as it were.
