"Se" Pronoun

Question

Hello everyone,

I am trying to learn the Spanish sentence construction and came across this sentence:

Se ve que te divertiste mucho.

I understand the meaning to be: I see that you have enjoyed yourself very much.

My question is, why is the "se" required at the beginning of the sentence. Thank you.

Answer 1

My all time favourite monkey

Se ve...impersonal se here.

Really the sentence means: one can see you .....

Of course, the normal translation is I can see...

Answer 2

Se ve...impersonal se here.

Is that impersonal se linked in any way to passive se?

I never know if phrases like "se ve que" means "one sees that" or "it is seen that"
