El, La, Los, and Las, can all mean the. They all depend on the word they are describing. If the noun if masculine you use El or Los. For example, you say El Gato (The Cat), but you say Los Gatos (The Cats if it is plural. If the noun is feminine, you use La or Las. For example, La Hermana (The Sister) and Las Hermanas (The Sisters).

Un, Una, Unos, and Unas can mean a or some. You use Un or Unos if the noun is masculine. For example, you say Un Gato (A Cat), but you say Unos Gatos (Some Cats or Several Cats. You use Una and Unas if the noun is feminine. For example, you say Una Hermana (One Sister), but you say Unas Hermanas (Some Sisters or Several Sisters).

Hope that helped grin.
