Yeh but it is the plural for 'the'. If you're using a feminie word in french such as 'cuisine' (kitchen) then you would use 'la', but if your using a masculin word such as 'lait' (milk) then you would use 'le'. However, there are some words which are plural and you need to use the word 'les'. For example ' les chats' which means the cats but 'la chat' but just be the cat!! So; Le=masculin La=feminine Les=plural(not masculin or feminine and usually more than one thing) ======= Actually, "le chat" (masculine) is cat; "la chatte" (feminine) is specifically a female cat. Either way, hte plural uses the article "les." "Les chats"--the (male) cats or a mixed group of male and female; or "les chattes"--a group of only females.
