If you mean how do you say "to the woman" in Latin then there would be at least two ways of saying that, but listing more than two would be redundant because they would mean the same thing as one of the two I am about to explain.
The first way to say it would be 'ad feminam'. you would use this if you were involved in 'motion towards' like: I walked to the woman.
the second way would be 'feminae'. That would be 'woman' as an indirect object like:I gave the book to the woman.
in either case you don't need a word for 'the' because it is implied in latin. if you really wanted to have a word for 'the', though, you could say 'ad eam feminam' for the first one and 'ei feminae' for the second one.
if you want to include the long marks then just look up the words an put them there yourself.

Instances occurring in the online collection "The Latin Library" are vulto austero "with a sour expression" and laeto vulto "with a cheerful expression".
