Remarks about the translation
this sentence is not complete, it is the second part of a larger one, this is why I added three dots at its beginning, according to Roller coaster's (Serbian expert) notification

Seems to be Serbo-Croatian. Google translate "Croatian → English" renders it as "but I love you more".

Checking with rjecnik.com reveals:

ali = but,
volim = 1st person singular present tense of 'voleti' or 'voljeti' (to love),
te = you,
više = more

In Spanish this would probably be "pero te amo más", and translating to Portuguese, "mas amo-te mais".

Consulting with a speaker of Croatian, he states that the phrase "sounds a bit weird", and that if it were meant as a comparison, for example

> "I love you"
< "But, I love you more!"

It would probably be phrased like:

> "Volim te"
< "Ne, ja tebe više volim"

Perhaps the original was the result of a machine translation ?

Serbian texts are mostly unfinished so this isn't anything weird.

This could be either Serbian or Croatian, it really doesn't make any changes

"but I love you more" - as an unfinished sentence
