Answer:

Le (masc. singular), La (fem. singular), L' (followed by a vowel), and Les (plural)

Examples of these 4:

le garçon – the boy

l’homme – the man

la femme – the woman

l’amie – the friend (girl)

les enfants – the children

When are they used:

Le and la are used before masculine and feminine nouns (with no liaison).

If the noun has a liaison, use l' for both masculine and feminine nouns of this type.

Les is the plural version of le and la.
