    The deffinition for "pesar" is given as "sorrow." Is it an expression for it to mean weigh?

      As a verb its "to weigh", as a noun its is sorrow. Weight is "peso"

      Why is the present tense "They go to weigh the dog" wrong?

        It is a future clause. (Another possibility: "....are going to....")
