What does dove mean?

[CrOtALiTo]

I'm quite suck because in my English class today, I saw a new word for me and for the pupils.

Dive- What does it mean?
What is the preterite verb of the word.

Thank you very much for your contribution.

Rusty answered your questions, but additional as a noun, "a dove" refers to "una paloma" and "a dovecot" is "un palomar".
