"de la" means 'some' or 'of the' in French. You use "de la" with feminine nouns and "du" before masculine nouns.

de la viande = some meat.

la porte de la maison = the door of the house

du sucre = sugar, some sugar

When a noun begins with a vowel sound, "de la" and "du" are replaced by a shortened form, " de l' "

de l'eau = some water

"De la" is a French preposition that is used before a feminine singular noun to indicate an unspecified amount or quantity of something. It can also be used to express possession or belonging. For example, "de la nourriture" means "some food" or "of the food."
