je ne sais quoi
Used to indicate a "certain something," as in "I really like Ann. She has a certain je ne sais quoi that I find very appealing."

I've been speaking french for years, and the closest thing that I can think of that sound like that are: "Je ne sait pas," and "Je ne sait quoi". It is probably the former, meaning, literally, "I don't know". The second is not used as much, and I don't even know if I spelt it or wrote it right, but it generally means the same thing but with more attitude. The former means like, "I don't know" about something in particular. The second means, "I don't know," dismissing a whole category or statement.
If you know any native french speakers or french teachers, ask them.

It's "je ne sais quoi", and it means "I don't know what". It's usually meant to describe that certain something "special" that someone has that can't be described.

do you mean je ne sais pas? that means "i don't know"....there is also je ne sais quoi, meaning 'I do not know what'; with the dictionary listing it as an: indescribable attractive attribute or quality; 'a certain something'.

Which means : Something,I don't know ...!

I'm a native speaker, and Tuipecancook's answer is the most accurate, you should give her/him the 10 points.
