Heard in a show. The house is a little small but it passes. Can you use passes like that? It passes (my inspection?) Gracias.

"but barely" or"but hardly" seems to be the most common use of "pero pasa".

"It's a little bit small, but it'll do" might work.

In this case "pero pasa" means But it's acceptable, I don't know if there is a better translation or a phrase for that in English.
The house is a little small but it's acceptable (maybe "anyway").

I think it passes works really good for "it's acceptable". - jeezzle, Feb 23, 2011
