    How it works

    This expression is formed by 'No sé' (I don't know), followed by the interrogative pronoun 'qué' (what), the adverb 'más' (else/more), and finally an infinitive verb 'hacer' (to do). It conveys a sense of helplessness or being at a loss for further action. The 'qué' here functions as a relative pronoun introducing a subordinate clause.
