You use granted when you admit that something is true, often before you say but. It is a way of giving the other person that point so you can go on: Granted, it is expensive, but it will last. It is a little more careful than a plain yes; in speech you might also say true or fair enough. Though actually, English has another very common phrase, take for granted, which means you stop noticing something because you always have it — that is not this use. And granted is also the past of the verb grant, to give or allow, as in she was granted a visa — again, not this sentence use.
沒錯、的確（先承認一句，後面常接 but；不是「核准了」）
組成grant + -ed. Grant means to give or allow. As a sentence opener it is like saying I give you that this part is true.
同家族的字
- grantto give or allow; granted here means it is given that this is true
