el = the (masculine, with a few exceptions is used before words ending in "o")
la = the (feminine, with a few exceptions is used before words ending in "a")
los = the (plural form of el, masculine)
las = the (plural form of la, feminine)
Examples:
el perro = the dog
los perros = the dogs
la vaca = the cow
las vacas = the cows
Welcome to the forum, I hope this helps!

Here's a very useful link about definite articles and another one about gender of nouns in Spanish.
