Nouns-Masculine & Feminine

In French, nouns (substantives m.) are either masculine (m.) or feminine (f.). Each gender has its own article.
le jour m.the day
la nuit  f.the night
Les is the plural article for both masculine and feminine nouns.
les hommes m. pluralthe men
les femmes f. pluralthe women
When the noun begins with a vowel or a silent 'h', the le or la simply becomes l'.
l'ombre m.the shade
l'abeille f.the bee
l'hôtel m.the hotel
