Signification
To state that you cannot understand what someone is saying or their meaning.
Contexte culturel
People are generally direct. Saying 'No te comprendo' is seen as efficient, not rude. Politeness is highly valued. You might hear 'Disculpa, no te entiendo bien' to soften the blow. The 'voseo' (using 'vos') might change the pronoun, but the structure remains similar. Very polite culture. They often use 'usted' even with friends, so 'No le comprendo' is common.
Use it early
Don't be afraid to use this phrase. It shows you are engaged.
Don't overuse
If you say it every 5 seconds, it might be better to ask for a simpler explanation.
