To make a word ending in a consonant plural in Spanish, you add -es. For example, ratón becomes ratones. You would take off the accent mark, also, since adding -es makes another syllable and negates the need for an accent mark.

El and La mean "the" but you only use them when talking about one thing. Like a singular word. Ex- El Libro- the book. La fecha- The date. Also they identify gender.
