What are the possible uses for だって?
Answer
It can mean "but" (similar to でも):
A: 学校に行きなさい！ (Go to school!)
B: だって頭痛いんだもん！ (But, my head hurts!)
This is often used by children, and can come across as cute or childish.
It can mean "even" (again, similar to でも):
頑張れば君だってできるよ！ (If you work hard even you can do it!)
It can mean the same as だと (or more generally, と becomes って)
彼のことが好きだって気づいた (I realised that I like him)
This use is conversational.
