- How do you use Se Puede - Spanish Language Stack Exchange
Se puede is impersonal by definition, hence you use it mostly in cases you could also say e g is it OK possible allowed to in English In ¿se puede? there is a entrar omitted: as if asking is it Ok to come in?

Just as in English, there are many acceptable ways to ask someone to repeat what they've said In my experience: ¿Cómo? is very common, and completely acceptable It's equivalent to the English What? or How's that? ¿Qué? can be used, but is less polite, and is probably better understood as the English What?! Possibly as in the context of What I think I heard you say sounds unbelievable
