不过 has various meanings? What does it mean in this sentence for example:

不过我可以去见你

Thanks!

"But still, I can go see you." Or simply: "However, I can come see you." The very best translation requires at least the previous sentence since the 不过 is strongly tied and related to what precedes it!

Actually, it means "anyway" . But it has an implication that the speaker maybe originally can't see you because of some other things. Finally, the speaker decides to see you in spite of other things.

不过我可以去见你
But I can go to see you .



不过 = bù​guò​ = only / merely / no more than / but / however / anyway (to get back to a previous topic)
