What's the difference between vorbeigehen / vorübergehen / passieren / vorbeikommen / übergeben / vergehen
passing — going past; moving by
Means to pass by, often with a sense of something temporary or brief; neutral and somewhat formal.
Ich sehe ihn jeden Morgen vorübergehen.
Я вижу, как он проходит мимо каждое утро.
Can mean to pass by, but very often also means ‘to happen’; therefore it is not always equivalent to the primary word.

Автобус как раз проезжает остановку.
Colloquial ‘to come by / pass by’, often suggesting a brief visit or moving past someone/something.
Komm heute Abend doch mal bei uns vorbei.
Загляни к нам сегодня вечером.
Mostly means ‘to hand over / deliver’; it does not fit the meaning ‘to pass by’ and is only a very distant match in form.

Учитель вручает ученикам табели.
Usually means ‘to pass’ in the sense of time, pain, or feelings; not physical passing by.

Время пролетело незаметно.
Means ‘to be over / finished’; it expresses completion rather than movement past something.

Means ‘to go on / continue walking’; close in situation, but the focus is on continuing movement, not on passing by.
