Definition
称称 is the reduplicated form of 称, but this row assigns the pinyin chèn, which corresponds to the sense 'to fit, to match' (as in 称职). In standard usage, the reduplicated verb meaning 'to give something a quick weigh' is read chēng chēng. The pinyin here is likely an error, and the intended meaning is uncertain.
v
(potentially) to weigh (quickly, tentatively)
