Hi,
In México we use ¿Quien sabe? to express that we don't have the answer and we don't know who has it or if it has an answer.
Who knows?
-¿Quién era ella?
-Quien sabe.
=
Who was she?
Who knows.
Quien Sabe?
If it's spelled with a tilde, it's a question. - ¿Quién sabe? - Who knows?
Without the tilde, it's a statement- -quien sabe - who knows.
For instance, - Necesito encontrar a quien sabe la respuesta- I need to find someone who knows the answer.
Sepa.
Ejemplo:
--¿Dónde queda Madagascar?
--¡Quién sabe! (sepa, no sé, no tengo idea, I don't have a clue, who knows...)
