El hombre se cayó de la bicicleta
Could someone please help me understand the use of "se" here. Does it mean that the bike is "his" bike that he fell from?
This is from Rosetta Stone Latin American Spanish.
Gracias

"se" is the most confusing word in the Spanish language.
You are going to have to learn how to use "se." Ella ya se fue para la escuela. (She already left for school)
El se llevo mi carro. (He took my car)
El se comió el pan y tomó vino. (He ate the bread and drank wine)
El vehículo se movió solo (The vehicle moved itself)
Mi amigo se fue enojado (my friend left angry)
se = he himself
Maybe this might help a little.
