"Que" when it does not have an accent is the link between a dependent clause and independent clause and translates as "that" for example: I know that he is here. Yo sé que él está aquí. "Lo que" is used as a substitute for a general concept or idea that usually does not have gender or tangibility. Usually "lo que" is translated as what or that which. For example he is telling me what (that which) happened to him yesterday. El me dice lo que se le ocurrió ayer. "Qué" (with accent) is usually the interrogative word for "what". What did he say?¿Qué dijo él? Those are the distinct differences!
