That depends on the language where it's used. In Scandinavian languages, it forms the definite article on non-neuter nouns (Swedish: bil "car", bilen "the car"). In German and Dutch, it is the mark of the infinitive (werken, leben, gehen). In English it's sometimes used for the past participle in irregular verbs (forget - forgotten), sometimes to make adjectives out of nouns (wood - wooden). I imagine it features in many other languages as well, with different functions.
