"posso" meaning in Latin

See posso in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Verb

Forms: possō [canonical], potēre [infinitive, present], potuī [active, perfect], *potūtum [supine]
Etymology: Partial regularization of the Classical Latin possum. The form possō is found beginning in the early second century CE in the letters of Claudius Terentianus. The 3SG imperfect potēbat is attested at the end of the second century CE, while the infinitive potēre and the 1SG imperfect potēbam are attested several times in the sixth century CE, and poteō (replacing possō and reflecting a full regularization of the verb) is first attested in 745 CE.
