The answer

WEIGH

What weigh means

To determine how heavy something is by using a scale or balance, or to consider something carefully before making a decision.

Where the word comes from

From Old English "wegan," meaning to carry or move, which also developed the sense of measuring heaviness. Related to Old Norse "vega" and ultimately from Proto-Germanic "*weganan." The noun "weight" shares the same root. The shift from "carry" to "measure by heaviness" reflects how scales work—they balance the burden of one thing against another.
