Wie can have many different meanings/uses in German, but probably the most frequent is as a question word: "how" or "what."
Examples:
Wie geht's? = how are you/what's up?
Wie heißt du? = What is your name?
Wie viel? = how many?
Wie spät ist es? =What time is it?
But it can also be used as a comparison word: "as" or "like."
Examples:
Wie eine Katze = like a cat
nicht so gut wie du = not as good as you
so schnell wie möglich = as fast as possible
And finally, it is used in a phrase to mean "beg your pardon" or "what [did you say]?" This is: Wie bitte?
Those are the most likely uses you would encounter.
