por lo general is just like a phrase.
now if you talk about
no lo se - I don't know it
hablalo - speak it
comelo - eat it
limpialo - clean it
it stands for "it"
you will notice those little sentences are speakingto a second person, which is "you"
example:
clean it - limpialo
(you) clean it - tú, limpialo
you don't have to say you because it is a command and by just simply sayinh the verb it is understood that it is talking to "you"

- Spanish (Mexico)
there are also lots of more examples
*in a conversation where something else is the topic (a dirty car for example)*
clean it for me - limpiamelo
limpia(clean) + me(to me) + lo(topic)

"lo or la" is a pronoun referred to something or someone
for example:

@andreasfeb hey! I found you something
it is called pronouns of direct object or indirect object, look for "the position of pronouns direct object or indirect object" and you will find some answer
here is an example to help you out

No lo see.
No( negative expression)
lo ( object)
sé (verb)
examples:
do u know where George's house is? (object is the location of George's house) so If u don't have information about it, the possible answer could be "I don't know" in English. In Spanish u can say:
No sé means I don't know
No lo sé "to emphasize about the information that u don't know" lo= location of George's house.
