abwiegen
to weigh up
- Past (Präteritum)
- wog ab
- Past participle
- abgewogen (haben)
Strong verb with a vowel shift. In this context, it signifies the metaphorical process of evaluating pros and cons or deliberating between options before making a final decision. It originates from the literal act of measuring mass on a scale. It should be distinguished from the weak verb abwiegen, which is rarer but refers strictly to the technical calibration of scales.
