Hi! Most of the times "lo que" can be translated as "what", usually in sentences with "what+(subject)" "Sé lo que quiero" (I know what I want) Sonetimes "lo que" can be ommited: "¿Qué es lo que dijo?" "¿Qué dijo?" (What did he/she say?) But we also use "lo que" when "what" is ommited or not used in English: "Everything they said was true." "Todo lo que dijeron era verdad/cierto" I hope it helps. ^_^
